The hardest thing I've ever done

Aaug
Is keep believing

F#m                                     G   A
There's someone in this crazy world for me

    D
The way that people come and go

Through temporary lives

My chance could come and I might never know

A
I used to say "No promises

Let's keep it simple"

But freedom only helps you say goodbye

It took a while for me to learn

That nothing comes for free

I know I've wasted too much time

I know I ask perfection of

  F#m              B7
A quite imperfect world

Bm                  D                      A   A7
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find
D Ddim7 A [Verse]
   A                              Aaug
So here I am with pockets full of good intentions

F#m                                 G    A
But none of them will comfort me tonight

     D
I'm wide awake at four a.m

    C#    C#7        F#m  B7
Without a friend in sight

I'm hanging on a hope but I'm alright

A quite imperfect world

And fool enough to think that's what I'll find

I know I need to be in love

Bm      E7                   A    G A
I know I've wasted too much time

   D            C#7
I know I ask perfection of

A quite imperfect world

And fool enough to think that's what I'll find
