Intro: Bm D Bm D

Verse 1:
      Bm    Gbm      D
You'd never seen the desert
    Bm             Gbm       D
You grew up in the Tennessee hills
       Bm    Gbm    D                    G
I said if we lasted five more months you will
     Bm       Gbm          D
So I took you to the Grand Canyon
        Bm      Gbm         D
And you said it looked like Mars
         Bm   Gbm  D                  G                  D G
You were more mesmerized by me than a sky full of stars

Chorus:
                A
This could be a landslide
Gbm                 G
And this could be a long ride home
                     A
And you could be the wrong guy
Gbm                  G
Or the greatest love that I've known
          A
I whisper under my breath
Gbm          G
You know I'm scared to death
                      A                  Gbm     G          Bm   D  Bm  D
We're standing on the edge right now and you say don't look down

Verse 2:
         Bm         Gbm     D                Bm       Gbm    D
You make small talk with my father, you're a kind and gentle man
          Bm     Gbm      D            G
You leave notes around my house just because you can
        Bm     D
I got a pocket full of Post-it's
   Bm             D
Of all our inside jokes
      Bm       Gbm     D              G
And I tell you all the secrets no one else knows

Chorus:
                A
This could be a landslide
Gbm                 G
And this could be a long ride home
                     A
And you could be the wrong guy
Gbm                  G
Or the greatest love that I've known
          A
I whisper under my breath
Gbm          G
You know I'm scared to death
                      A                  Gbm     G
We're standing on the edge right now and you say don't look down

Bridge:
               A        Gbm
You could fall out of love
                     G
And it would make me fall apart
                    A             Bm   G  (nc)  G
And I'd spend every day wonderin' how you are

Chorus:
                A
This could be a landslide
Gbm                 G
And this could be a long ride home
                     A
And you could be the wrong guy
Gbm                  G
Or the greatest love that I've known
          A
I whisper under my breath
Gbm          G
You know I'm scared to death
                      A                  D                  Bm   D  Bm  D
We're standing on the edge right now and you say don't look down

Outro:
     Bm       Gbm          D
So I took you to the Grand Canyon
        Bm      Gbm         D
And you said it looked like Mars
         Bm   Gbm  D                  G   (nc)
You were more mesmerized by me than a sky full of stars
