Verse 1
F#add9 
F#maj9 
 (F sharpadd9) I          can think of  (F sharp minoraj9) all        the times
B/F# 
You  (B/F#) told    me not to touch the light
F#add9 
F#maj9 
B/F# 
I  (F sharpadd9) never      thought that  (F sharp minoraj9) you        would be  (B/F#) the one
F#add9 
F#maj9 
I  (F sharpadd9) couldn't   really  (F sharp minoraj9) justify
B/F# 
How you  (B/F#) even    thought it could be right
F#add9 
F#maj9

Chorus 1

Leaves will soon grow from

the bareness of trees

And all will be alright in time

From waves overgrown

come the calmest of seas

And all will be alright in time

Oh you never really love someone until

you learn to

Verse 2
F#add9 
F#maj9 
 (F sharpadd9) Try        as hard  (F sharp minoraj9) as         I might
B/F# 
To  (B/F#) flee    the shadows of the night
F#add9 
F#maj9 
B/F# 
It  (F sharpadd9) haunts     me and it  (F sharp minoraj9) makes      me feel  (B/F#) blue
F#add9 
F#maj9 
But  (F sharpadd9) how        can I  (F sharp minoraj9) try        to hide
B/F# 
When  (B/F#) every   breath and every hour
F#add9 
F#maj9 
B/F# 
 (F sharpadd9) I          still end up  (F sharp minoraj9) thinking   of you?  (B/F#) 
D#m7 
G#7 
C#add4 
And in the end,  (D sharp minor7) every (G sharp7) thing we have  (C sharpadd4) 
F#/A# 
Badd9 
makes it  (F sharp/A#) worth    the fight  (Badd9) 
So I will hold on for as long
