Verse 1:
        F                          C
There's something about you in the moonlight
         Am         G             F
But your eyes go so well with the day
F                        C     C/B
You won't let go of your layers
         Am        G         F
But your power can strip me away

     Am
It's easier for us to hide
   G
If you come out, then so will I
C                                F
  Promise that I'll meet you halfway

'Cause I see every part of you

And I can tell you see me, too

  By the way that you say my name

I am an honest man

F                     C
You're so afraid of tomorrow

So you build your walls up today
F                             C    C/B

You make me an honest man

I know I played with hearts before
      G
Don't have a heart to play with yours

I only swear to do the best I can

How beautiful our love could be

If only you would take a chance
