[Verse 1]
Cmaj7         Asus2
Hello, I've waited here for you
Fsus2/E   Asus2
   E  -  verlong
Cmaj7        Asus2
Tonight, I throw myself into
Fsus2/E        Asus2
And out of the red
            Asus2
Out of her head, she sang

[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  Asus2  Fsus2/E  Asus2

[Verse 2]
Cmaj7          Asus2
Come down, and waste away with me
Fsus2/E    Asus2
Down      with me
Cmaj7              Asus2
Slow how you wanted it to be
Fsus2/E        Asus2                       (Riff) G/B C5 Dsus4 Em
And over my head, out of her head she sang

[Pre-Chorus]
Em Fsus2 G Dsus4   G/B  C5    Dsus4 Em
              And   I   won - der
Em Fsus2 G Dsus4            G/B       C5 Dsus4 Em  Em Fsus2 G
              When I sing along with you

[Chorus]
Asus2                    Fsus2/E           Cmaj7    Bsus4
If everything could ever feel this real forever
Asus2                  Fsus2/E        Cmaj7    Bsus4
If anything could ever be this good again
Asus2                    Fsus2/E
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
  Cmaj7                         G6           Fsus2/E
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when

She sang

[Verse 3]
Cmaj7               Asus2
Breathe out, so I can breathe you in
Fsus2/E  Asus2
Hold    you in
Cmaj7          Asus2
And now I know you've always been
Fsus2/E      Asus2                         (Riff) G/B C5 Dsus4 Em
And over my head, out of my head I sang

If anything could ever be this good again
Asus2                    Fsus2/E
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
