Key: B
Introduction:
G Am
You let me in to your life unaware that there was magic and fire in the night
C G
And back then I was just a little boy
C G
I made mistakes that caused you so much pain
D Em D C
All I know is that I'm older now
G
Some people think that it's best to refrain
Am
From the conventions of old-fashioned love
C G
Their hearts are filled with holes and emptiness
C G
They tell themselves that they're too young to settle down
D Em D C B
Girl I promise you I'm older now
Em C
And this has been hard enough on you
D G G/F#
I know it's been hard enough on me
Em C D
In telling myself that I can roll with the changes
Em C
And when the water gets high above your head
D G G/F#
Darling don't you see,
Em C D
While this has been hard enough on you
G
It's been hard enough on me
G
I wasn't looking when we built these walls
Am
When we spread my dreams at your feet
C G
Let's not let times build the flood rise
C G
Before my thoughts begin to run
D Em D C B
I think I'm getting older now
(refrão)
Em C Em C
Can't stand the thought of another, talking to you sweet my dear
Em C D
Where would I be tonight if you hadn't held me here, in your arms?
(Repeat chords from chorus)
