Verse 1 
D         A                                  D 
In the middle of the night, I may watch you go     
                  A                                         D        
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown 
                  G            Bm           D   A    G 
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown    
         A   D              A   D  
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine           

Verse 2
                D         G        D
Stretch out my life and pick the seams out            
                D          G      A        Bm 
Take what you like, but close my ears and eyes  
  G          D     A D      A  D
 Watch me crumble over and over  

Verse 3 (Same as Verse 2)
I have done wrong, so build your tower
But call me home and I will build a throne 
And wash my eyes out never again      

Chorus  
                      G                                         
But love the one you hold      
                  A
And I'll be your goal                 
                 Bm                                             
To have and to hold            
                 D
A lover of the light  

Verse 4 & 5 (Same as Verse 2)
Skin too tight and eyes like marbles 
You spin me high so watch me as I glide 
Before I tumble homeward, homeward
 
I know I tried, I was not stable
And flawed by pride, I miss my sanguine eyes
So hold my hands up, breathe in, breathe out

Verse 6
          A                                  D        
In the middle of the night, I may watch you go     
                A                                           D        
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown 
                 G              Bm           D   A    G 
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown   
              G           Bm            D      A     G
You may not trust the promises of the change I'll show 
          A   D             A   D
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine
