Intro: E A x2
E
I'm walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
A
And all we know is touch and go
E
We are alone with our changing minds
A
We fall in love 'til it hurts or bleeds or fades in time
E A
And I never never saw you coming
E A
And I'll never never be the same
E A
E
You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannon ball
A
Now all we know is don't let go
E
We are alone just you and me
Up in your room and our slates are clean
A
Just twin fire signs four blue eyes
E
So you were never a saint
And I love the shades of wrong
We learn to live with the pain
Mostly of broken hearts
A
But this love is great and wild
E A
And I never never saw you coming
E A
And I'll never never be the same
E
This is a state of grace
A
This is the worthwhile fight
F#m
Love is a ruthless game
E A
Unless you play it good and right
E
These are the hands of fate
A
You're my Achilles heel
F#m E A
This is the golden age of something good and right and real
E A
And I never never saw you coming
E A
And I'll never never be the same
E A
And I never never saw you coming
E A
And I'll never never be the same
E
This is a state of grace
A
This is the worthwhile fight
F#m
Love is a ruthless game
E A E
Unless you play it good and right
