[Intro]
[Strophe]
  C         G                          C 
And in the middle of the night, I may watch you go 
 C               G                                  C 
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I'll have grown 
                 F              Am           Am  G    F 
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown 
         G    C             G  C 
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine
[Strophe]
                C         F        C 
Stretch out my life and pick the seams out 
               C          F       G        Am 
Take what you like, but close my ears and eyes 
  F        C      G  C      G C 
Watch me stumble over and over 
[Strophe]
C                      F          C 
I had done wrong, you build your tower 
 C                   F      G          Am 
But call me home and I will build a throne 
    F        C        G  C  G C 
And wash my eyes out never again
[Refrain]
C                       F 
But love the one you hold 
                  G 
And I'll be your goal 
                Am 
To have and to hold 
                   C 
A lover of the light
[Strophe]
C                   F         C 
Skin too tight and eyes like marbles 
C                    F       G     Am 
You spin me high so watch me as I glide 
F         C       G C     G C 
Before I tumble homeward homeward
[Strophe]
C                     F       C 
I know I've tried, I was not stable 
C                   F       G        Am 
Flawed my pride, I miss my sanguine eyes 
    F       C           G  C         G C 
So hold my hands up, breathe in an' breathe out 
[Refrain]
C                     F 
So love the one you hold 
                  G 
And I'll be your goal 
                Am 
To have and to hold 
                C 
A lover of the light

You may not trust the promises of the change I'll show

But I'll be yours if you'll be mine
