  Intro:     G 
   
 G                       D 
 If I came to you empty handed 
          Em                    C 
 A barren ocean with nothing at all 
     G                       D 
 And if I came to you empty hearted 
                Em               C 
 Searching for pieces after the fall 

 C                       G 
 All I've ever known is how to hide a secret 
  D 
 But I'm tired of going on without believing 
       Em 
 That love is not illusion 
  Bm                    D 
 Love illuminates the blind 


    C G  D   
 If I-I fell into you 
              Em 
 Would it be close enough? 
    C G  D 
 If I-I finally let you in 
            Em       D       C 
 Would you show me what love is? 
                      G      D      Em      C 
 If I had nothing to give 


 G                        D 
 If you came to me empty handed 
                Em                  C 
 I'd brave your ocean to bring you home 
     G                        D 
 And if you came to me empty hearted 
               Em                  C 
 I'd find the pieces to make you whole 


    C G  D   
 If I-I fell into you 
              Em 
 Would it be close enough? 
    C G  D 
 If I-I finally let you in 
            Em       D       C 
 Would you show me what love is? 
                      C      G 
 If I had nothing to give 


 D 
 If I am a promise 
  A                      C      G 
 Will you let me break again 
 D 
 I will be your compass 
 A                    C 
 I will only let you bend 

 C                       G 
 All I've ever known is how to hide a secret 
  D 
 But I'm tired of going on without believing 
       Em 
 That love is not illusion 
  Bm                    D 
 Love illuminates the blind 


    C G  D   
 If I-I fell into you 
              Em 
 Would it be close enough? 
    C G  D 
 If I-I finally let you in 
            Em       D       C 
 Would you show me what love is? 
                      G      D      Em      C       
 If I had nothing to give 
                      G 
 If I had nothing to give
