Verse 1:
FA SOLm DO FA
I hid myself from failure and fear
SIb SOLm DO FA
Oh my dear you’re a threat to the bad in us all
FA SOLm DO FA
They tell themselves that each word from your lips
SIb SOLm DO FA
Or the grace in your eyes overcomes any fall
Pre-Chorus:
FA LAm SIb FA
All through the twilight you’re listening for me
SOLm FA MI LAm
Darling, go to sleep
FA LAm SIb FA
Cradled by moonlight, I’m dreaming we’ll be
SOLm FA MI LAm
Loved so deep
Chorus
RE RE/DO# RE/DO MIm
Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Eo D D(b5) C#o
‘Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
RE RE/DO# RE/DO MIm
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
Eo D D(b5) C#o
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
RE RE/DO# RE/DO MIm
And when they say that I’m just a terrible kite
Eo D D(b5) C#o Dm - Am - Bb - Gm
You’ll tell them you’re proud of my marvelous flight
REm - LAm - SOLm - FA/LA
Verse 2:
FA SOLm DO FA
Don’t hide yourself inside ‘till I’m old
SIb SOLm DO FA
Oh my dear you’re a threat to the bad we all see
FA SOLm DO FA
I’m beside myself for the touch of your lips
SIb SOLm DO FA
Or the grace of your eyes that can see good in me
(Pre-Chorus)
