C     G               C              G 
  You stepped in, and dark turned to light 
  Am7        G                   C         G 
I knew right there, you were the breath of life 
C           G         C      G 
  Just when I'd given up the fight 
  Am7        G                   C         G 
I knew right there, you were the breath of life 



Em                        Am 
Just when the morning air lost its bitter bite 
G                    C                D 
You never think your heart will butterfly 
Em                   Am 
Ballerina, don't you dance your life away 
G                                   C      D 
Those years meant nothing till this cold December day

You stepped back to say goodnight 
I knew right there you were the breath of life 
We looked up at a blinding light 
I knew right there you were the breath of life 

I never thought that I could say those words again 
I think you know the ones; I'm sure you know the ones 
I've been hiding, alone, in the night 
On and on like a dream that never ends 

   C       G          C       G 
So come on out, don't say goodnight 
Am7        G              C    G 
Out of the shadows to the neon light 
C        G               C         G 
Meet you down where that Dixieland plays 
Am7            G               C          G 
Leave all your troubles, gonna dance 'em away

G 
Drop my hands by my side, let the hours slip away 

Don't say nothing, let the music play 
C               G             C       G 
Twenty years on down when the time is right 
     Am7             G                 C         G 
I'll turn around and know you were the breath of life
