Intro: B  F#m  E (2x)     


Verse 1:
     
B     
When I was younger I      
                           F#m     
saw my daddy cry     
                               E     
And curse at the wind     
  B     
He broke his own heart and      
I watched as he tried     
     F#m               E     
To reassemble it     
         B     
And my momma swore that she      
                           F#m              E     
would never let herself forget     
       B     
And that was the day      
that I promised     
                              F#m     
I'd never sing of love      
                          E     
if it does not exist     
But darling     

B     
You are the only exception     
F#m             E     
You are the only exception     
B     
You are the only exception     
F#m              E     
You are the only exception 
    


Interlude: B     


Verse 2:
     
     B     
Well maybe I know somewhere      
                     F#m     
deep in my soul     
                             E     
That love never lasts     
    B     
And we've got to find other      
                             F#m     
ways to make it alone     
                                  E     
Or keep a straight face     
        B     
And I've always lived like      
                            F#m     
this keeping a comfortable     
E              
Distance   
        B  
And up until now i swored      
to myself that I'm      
F#m                          E     
content with loneliness     
        E     
Because none of it was      
ever worth the      
risk Well...     


Chorus     


Interlude: C#m  B  F# (2x)     

Bridge:     
                 C#m     
I've got a tight      
grip on reality     
                        B     
But I can't let go of      
                                      F#     
what's in front of me here     
                         C#m     
i know you're leaving in     
the morning when you wake up     
                     B     
Leave me with of some kind of      
                              F#            E      
proof it's not a dream ohh     


Chorus     


Outro:
     
        A                E     
And I'm on my way      
                     B     
to believing     
               A      
Oh and I'm on my      
E                           B    
way to believing
