dampened down strokes. If that made any sense I don't know :)
verse 1 :
Em G
My bones are like feathers, they quiver and quake.
Em G
But unlike my heart they don't easily break.
Em G
My brain is a crossfire, a war barricade.
Em
But my walls were left shattered the day that you came.
Am Bm let it ring
woah hoo oh ho
verse 2:
Em G
I don't have much money, no gifts I can give.
Em G
But I'll give you my heart if you'll just let it live.
Em G
Every rose has it's thorn, every life finds a grave,
Em
But you made life worth living the day that you came.
Am Bm let it ring
woah ho oh ho
verse 3:
Em G
We'll run through the forest, dust chasing our heels
Em G
And I'll bite my tongue to keep my confessions concealed
Em G
I don't know what happened, was there something in the rain?
Em
All I know is that I fell in love the day that you came.
Am Bm loud strumming
woah ho oh ah
verse 3:
Em G
I'll ask God for patience, I won't envy or boast
Em G
And when the devil comes calling you'll give up the ghost
Em G
I'll carry your heart like a boat on a wave
Em
Cause you saved me from drowning the day that you came.
Am Bm let it ring
Woah ho oh ho
verse 4:
Em G
I'd beg, steal or borrow I'd cheat and i'd lie
Em G
To have you with me till the day that I die
Em G
I'll whisper a promise and utter your name
Em G
And sing of that moment, the day that you came
the day that you came (do the into on the word came)
