Verse: 

    F                 C            F             C 
We talk to the deep of the night, moving by cigarette light. 
 Em                     Dm                 Em             Dm 
Waiting for something to spark, but you've left me in the dark. 
    F                    C           F                      C 
Mistakes that you made in the past, cutting for you like they're glass. 
  Em                         Dm       Em              Dm 
There are no words that can paint the longing in your face, 
C             Am    C   F 
I just wanna hold you, keep you in my world. 


                      F    C                         F   C 
But you wanted to go higher, take the chance and explode. 
                         Em      Dm                         Em   Dm 
Though I was born in the afterlife, thought I was more than the...

You're at the edge of your desire, left the story untold. 
                           Em   Dm                             Em  Dm 
Though I was more than the afterlife, thought I was more than the..

verse 2
 
 F                    C            F         C 
Love's never clear in a haze, but you feel good in the sway. 
 Em            Dm             Em              Dm 
Calling me up for a right, I pick you up, we fight. 
           F                       C         F                  C 
I say the future is yours if you choose and mine won't exist without you. 
 Em            Dm                   Em          Dm 
Nothing I say hits your heart, you keep me in the dark. 

Pre-Chorus

I just wanna hold you, keep you in my world.
