[Verse]
B Emaj7
So this is how the story went
G#m F#
I met someone by accident
E B
who blew me away
G#m F#
who blew me away
B D#m
It was in the darkest of my days
G#m F#
When you took my sorrow and you took my pain
E B
And buried them away
G#m F#
Buried them away
[Chorus]
C#m F#
And I wish I could lay down beside you
B G#m
When the day is done
C#m F# G#m G#sus2 G#m
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
C#m F#
But like everything I've ever known
B G#m
you'll disappear one day
C#m F# B Emaj7 B Emaj7
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away
[Verse 2]
B Emaj7
I dropped you off at the train station
G#m F#
And put a kiss on top of your head
E B
I watched you wave
G#m F#
I watched you wave
B D#m
Then I went on home to my skyscrapers
G#m F#
Neon lights and waiting papers
E B
That I call home
G#m F#
I call that home
[Chorus]
C#m F#
And I wish I could lay down beside you
B G#m
When the day is done
C#m F# G#m G#sus2 G#m
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
C#m F#
But like everything I've ever known
B G#m
you'll disappear one day
C#m F# B Emaj7 B Emaj7
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away
[Verse 3]
B Emaj7
I woke up feeling heavy hearted
G#m F#
I'm going back to where I started
E B
The morning rain
G#m F#
The morning rain
B D#m
And you know I wish that you were here
G#m F#
But that same old road that brought me here
E B
Is calling me home
G#m F#
Is calling me home
[Chorus]
C#m F#
And I wish I could lay down beside you
B G#m
When the day is done
C#m F# G#m G#sus2 G#m
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
C#m F#
But like everything I've ever known
B G#m
You'll disappear someday
C#m F# B
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away
C#m F# B* C
And I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart away
