G (x2) D (x2) Em (x2) C (x2) 

G          D 
I remember life before 
Em                C           G 
Faraway dreams and locking doors 
          D             Em        C 
Then you came, then you came 
G              D 
Afraid to fall, to be free 
Em                  C    G 
Always my own worst enemy 
          D          Em       C 
Isn't what, what you see 
Em             D 
I took time to realize 
     G                C           D 
That I couldn't do it by myself, myself 

           G                   C 
There's no gravity when you're next to me 
Em                             D 
You always break my fall like a parachute 
            G                        C 
When you're holding me so weightless I barely breathe 
Em                          D 
You always break my fall, my fall 
      G                 C 
Like a parachute 
          Em      D 
You're my parachute 

G           D 
With you it all begins 
Em             C         G 
Feeling okay in my own skin 
        D           Em       C 
So alive, I'm so alive 
G                      D 
I know this life isn't gonna be perfect 
Em                    C              G 
The ups and downs are gonna be worth it 
            D            C          D 
As long as I'm, I'm with you 

           G                   C 
There's no gravity when you're next to me 
Em                             D 
You always break my fall like a parachute 
            G                        C 
When you're holding me so weightless I barely breathe 
Em                          D 
You always break my fall, my fall 

You're my parachute 

         Em              C 
When I'm standing at the edge 
            D 
It's such a long way down 
      Em         C 
And I second-guess myself 
                D 
You're there to catch me now 
Em    C 
Woah, woah 
D 
Woah, woah 

I'll never touch the ground 

           G                   C 
There's no gravity when you're next to me 
Em                             D 
You always break my fall like a parachute 
            G                        C 
When you're holding me so weightless I barely breathe 
Em                          D 
You always break my fall, my fall 
      G                 C 
Like a parachute 
          Em      D 
You're my parachute
