[Intro]
Bm   Bsus2   G  Gmaj7  G

[Verse 1]
        D       Em         G        
And I'd give up forever to touch you
         Bm            A           G  
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
           D          Em          G           
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
      Bm            A             G  
And I don't want to go home right now

[Verse 2]
    D         Em            G     
And all I can taste is this moment
    Bm        A               G   
And all I can breathe is your life
    D         Em         G   
And sooner or later it's over
       Bm            A        G      
I just don't want to miss you tonight

[Chorus]
      Bm             A        G     
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm               A      G         
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm           A          G     
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm          A          G 
I just want you to know who I am

[Interlude]
Bm   Bsus2   G  Gmaj7  G

[Verse 3]
        D               Em               G     
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
       Bm        A             G   
Or the moment of truth in your lies
     D          Em             G     
When everything feels like the movies
          Bm            A           G    
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

[Chorus]
      Bm             A        G     
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm               A      G         
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm           A          G     
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm          A          G 
I just want you to know who I am
