Car is parked,
bags are packed,
but what kind of heart does n’t look back?
At the com fort ’ble glow from the porch,
the one I will still call
yours.
All those words
came un done,
and now I’m not the on ly one
fac ing the ghosts that de cide if the (Csus4)fi re in side
still burns.
All I have,
all I need.
He’s the (F)air I would kill to breathe.
Holds my love
in his hands,
still I’m (F)search ing for some thing.
Out of breath, I am left hop ing some (Csus4)day I’ll breathe a gain,
I’ll breathe a gain.
O pen up
next
to you, and my se crets be come your truth.
And the dis tance be tween that was (Csus4)shel ter ing me comes in full
view.
Hang my (F5)head,
break my (Csus4)heart;
built from all I have torn
a part.
And my bur den to bear is a love I can’t car ry
an y more.
All I have,
all I need.
He’s the (F)air I would kill to breathe.
Holds my love
in his hands.
Still I’m (F)search ing for some thing.
Out of breath, I am left hop ing some (C5)day I’ll breathe a gain.
(Dbmaj13)Ooh,
it (Ab69)hurts to (Bbsus2)be here.
(Dbmaj13)Ah,
I (Ab69)on ly want (Bbsus2)ed love from you.
(Dbmaj13)Ah,
it (Ab69)hurts to (Bbsus2)be here.
(F)What am I (Bbsus2)gon na do?
All I have,
all I need.
He’s the (Fsus2)air I would kill to breathe.
Holds my love
in his hands.
Still I’m
search ing.
All I have,
all I need.
He’s the (F)air I would kill
to breathe.
Holds my love
in his hands,
and still I’m search ing for some thing.
Out of breath, I am left hop ing some (C5)day
I’ll breathe a gain,
I’ll breathe a gain,
I’ll breathe a gain,
I’ll breathe a gain,
I’ll breathe a gain,
I’ll breathe a gain.
