[Intro]
C#m A C#m A
[Estrofe]
           C#m 
Could it be I was the one 
                             A 
That you held so deep in the night? 
            C#m 
On the back staircase 
                                          A 
You fell to your knees with tears in your eyes  
             F# 
All that you suffered, all the disease 
             A 
You couldn't hide it, hide it from me
[Estrofe]
           C#m 
All alone, scared in your room 
                               A 
Would you swear there's nobody home? 
            C#m 
On the bed, laying awake 
                             A 
As you prayed he'd leave you alone  
             F#                   A 
I'll let the darkness swallow me whole 
          F#                     A 
I need to find you, need you to know
[Refrão]
C#m           A            F# 
I'll be your friend in the daylight again 
C#m            A          F# 
There we will be, like an old enemy 
         A 
Like the salt and the sea
[Instrumental]
C#m A
[Estrofe]
               C#m 
And they wrote all these prescriptions 
                         A 
They wrote me off like a heel 
              C#m 
Yeah, the doctors with their medicine 
                      A 
Left me to rock in my filth  
         F#                       A 
From the destruction, out of the flame 
           F#                  A 
You need a villain, give me a name
[Refrão]
C#m           A            F# 
I'll be your friend in the daylight again 
C#m            A          F# 
There we will be, like an old enemy 
C#m           A            F# 
I'll be your friend in the daylight again 
C#m            A          F# 
There we will be, like an old enemy 
         A 
Like the salt and the sea 
         A 
Like the salt and the sea
