G G Dm Cmaj7
x2
G Dm Cmaj7 When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind G Dm Cmaj7 He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to re-assemble it G Dm Cmaj7 And my mama swore that she would never let herself forget G Dm And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love Cmaj7 if it does not exist, but darling
G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 You are the only exception G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 G You are the only exception
G Dm Cmaj7 Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts G Dm Cmaj7 And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face G Dm Cmaj7 And I've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable distance G Dm Cmaj7 And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk
G Well, you are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 You are the only exception G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 Am You are the only exception
Am Am G D Am Am G D
Am I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't G D Let go of what's in front of me here Am I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up G D C Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, whoa
G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 You are the only exception G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 You are the only exception
G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 You are the only exception G You are the only exception Dm Cmaj7 You are the only exception
Fadd#11 C G And I'm on my way to believing Fadd#11 C G Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
