[Opening]
[Am]Here, where the sky’s [F]falling, I’m [C]covered in [G]blue
[Am]I’m running and I’m [F]crawling, [C]fighting for [G]you
When the [Am]rain stops, then, [F]darling, [C]what will I [G]do
And I [Am]know I go [F]all in, but [Dm]why do [F]I

[verse 2]
[C]You give me a reason, [Em]something to believe in
[Am]I know, I know, I [F]know, [C]you give me a meaning
[Em]Something I can breathe in, [Am]I know, I know, I [F]know
It’s a [C]bittersweet feeling, [Em]longing and I’m leaving
[Am]I go, I go, I [F]go, but I wish [F]I was there with [C]you
Oh, I wish [F]I was there with [C]you

[Closing]
There’s a [Am]crack in my [F]window, [C]a bird in my [G]room
[Am]Angels all [F]over, that [C]watch over [G]you
When I’m [Am]walking on [F]water, all my [C]dreams have come [G]true
Still, [Am]nothing means [F]nothing, without [Dm]you, [F]you

[chorus]
[C]You give me a reason, [Em]something to believe in
[Am]I know, I know, I [F]know, [C]you give me a meaning
[Em]Something I can breathe in, [Am]I know, I know, I [F]know
It’s a [C]bittersweet feeling, [Em]longing and I’m leaving
[Am]I go, I go, I [F]go, [C]tell my heart to lie
But [Em]I know deep inside it’s [Am]true, that I wish [F]I was there with [C]you
That I wish [F]I was there with [C]you, oh, I wish [F]I was there with [C]you

[chorus]
[C]You give me a reason, [Em]something to believe in
[Am]I know, I know, I [F]know, [C]you give me a meaning
[Em]Something I can breathe in, [Am]I know, I know, I [F]know
It’s a [C]bittersweet feeling, [Em]longing and I’m leaving
[Am]I go, I go, I [F]go, [C]tell my heart to lie
But [G]I know deep inside it’s [Am]true, that I wish [F]I was there with [C]you
That I wish [F]I was there with [C]you, oh, I wish [F]I was there with [C]you
