Verse: 1 
Am                 C              Am             C 
 There's something about this girl, some kind of magic 
Am           C               F 
 I swear she cast a spell on me 
Am       C          Am            C 
 Not the first time, might be the last 
Am              C            F 
 Can't let this moment slip away 
                G                         Am 
Try to find the words, none survived with me 
            F                       G 
Air of confidence, but I can barely breathe

Verse: 2 
Am         C         Am       C 
 She's without a care, electrified and hell-bent 
Am          C              F 
 A thousand volts igniting me 
Am               C       Am      C 
 The waves crash over me, far below but I breach 
Am        C           F 
 The undertow, my reverie 

Bridge 
               G                             Am 
Sadness in her smile, your love, it's been a while 
              F                       G 
Near and far away, she chases it each day 
                  C                          F 
A promise to come back, all the while, still waiting 
                  G 
Seems it lost its way 

 
                        F 
 Out of reach, just too hard to reach 
Am                              C 
 You're letting your love slip away 
Em                        F 
 Out of reach, yeah, it's hard to reach 
Am               Bb 
 There's another day 
Dm               Em           F 
 Although you're hurting and afraid 
        Am                  G 
 You're stronger than yesterday
