INTRO
A   Eadd4/A   D/A
A   Eadd4/A...

VERSE I
D/A             A    Eadd4/A      D/A       A
 Your eyes are full, full of the future of us
          Eadd4/A   D/A       D
The air changes as you look across
                         Bsus2  B
At me in that wondering way

VERSE II
          A   Eadd4/A      D/A       A
It is as if    I knew you before we spoke
    Eadd4/A        D/A            D
Do our hearts know something we don't?
                           Bsus2                B  B7  B11
Conspiring, converging, without giving us any say

CHORUS
D               A                     C#
You sing me to sleep, talk down my walls
                F#m          D
Look through my windows as I wait
                   A               E     D  A/C#...
You could be the thief I give the key to

VERSE III
       Bm7       A    Eadd4/A        D/A          A
You're ruining me, with secrets and gestures and looks
    Eadd4/A      D/A           D
With sonnets and second-hand books
                        Bsus2                B   B7  B11
Playing the chords in me nobody knew how to play

CHORUS
D                A                  C#
You sing me to sleep, talk down my walls
                F#m          D
Look through my windows as I wait
                   A                E
You could be the thief I give the key to

BRIDGE
                  D            A        C#
It fits in your hand like the water in rain
  F#5            D             A              C#          F#5
It unlocks our two different selves and shows we are the same
      *   D            A        C#         F#m
Rather than wait 'til I put me out for the taking
    B7sus2  B7  B11        D        *       E
You're breaking,    you're breaking into my heart
        A...
And I'm letting you

OUTRO
...Eadd4/A  D/A    
A  Eadd4/A  D/A              A   Eadd4/A     D/A         A
             Your eyes are full, full of the future of us.
