[Intro] Bm D D Bm D D Bm D A Bm F#m Dsus2 G G D Dsus2 Bm [Verse 1]
D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             Bm D
You know the distance never made a difference to me

D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             Bm D
I swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked across the floor of any sea

D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             A Bm
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen

             F#m
And all that we believe
[Chorus]
A                              G G     D Dsus2
So I thought you were like an angel to me
D Dsus2 Em7 Bm7 [Verse 2]
D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             Bm D
Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy

D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             Bm D
If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in thе mind of me

D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             A Bm
Where a blinding light shonе on you every night

         F#m
Either side of my sleep
[Chorus]
A                                   G G      D Dsus2
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me
[Post-Chorus]
Dsus2
It ain't the being alone

Em7
Sha-la-la

Dsus2                        Em7
It ain't the empty home, baby

Bm7                        Em7
You know I'm good on my own

           Dsus2                    G G      D   Dsus2
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown

                                        G     D
So much of the living, love, is the being unknown
D Bm D [Verse 3]
D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             Bm D
You called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me

D                       Dsus4 D Dsus2             Bm D
You smile now, I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth

D                            Dsus4 D Dsus2   A Bm
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick

       F#m
Every tedious beat
[Chorus]
A                     G G     D Dsus2
Going unknown as any angel to me
[Bridge]
Em7    Bm           G
Do you know I could break beneath the weight

       Em7              A             G
Of the goodness love I still carry for you

Em7       Bm      G
That I'd walk so far just to take

    D          A       G
The injury of finally knowing you
[Post-Chorus]
Dsus2
It ain't the being alone

Em7
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, la, la-la

Dsus2                    Em7              G
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha-la-la, la-la-la)

Bm7                        Em7
You know I'm good on my own

              Dsus2                 G G      D   Dsus2
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown

                                            G     D
And there are some people, love, who are better unknown
[Outro] D Bm D D Bm D A Bm F#m Dsus2 G G D Dsus2 D
