Riff
in the party love,
Riff                      A
some band's playing hallelujah
  E
hallelujah
Riff
in the corner love
Riff                            A             E
all night girls drink wine and try to sing along
Riff
i made a mess of things
    Riff
the stops and in betweens
       A        E
they weigh me down
Riff                 Riff             A    E
you got someone new singing you your songs now

A   E      D
sooner surrender
A              E     D
then watch the last wall collapse
A   E      D
sooner surrender
    A     E                  D
and our love will count for everything

Riff
in my sweetest dreams
Riff
it's just you and me
     A        E
and we break wide
Riff
i wake reminded love
Riff
how i just gave up
     A                 E
and how you moved on, how you moved on

Riff
i'm waiting for something
Riff
i've waited for now
         A       E
for the rolling canyons of love
Riff
and i'm tongue tied
Riff          A          E
and you're coming alive, coming alive

sooner surrender
then watch the last wall collapse
and sooner surrender
and our love will count for everything

Bm                      A
i'm sorry that you've gone
    E                 Bm
so sorry that you've gone
Bm                     A
i'm sorry that you've gone
 E
love
i'm sorry that you've gone
so sorry that you've gone away
A                       Bm
 you're a little bit right
more than a little bit right
         D
with my arms around you

sooner surrender
then watch the last wall collapse
and sooner surrender
and our love will count for everything

sooner surrender
than watch the last wall collapse I know
sooner surrender and our love will count for everything
our love will count for everything
and I miss when you were everything
