[Verse 1]
Am          F
I had given up

         C                   G
I didn't know who to trust

Am        F
So I designed a shell

             C                 G
Kept me from heaven and hell

Am           F
And I had hit a low

         C                  G
Was all I let myself know

Am                 F
Yeah, I had locked my heart

        C                 E
I was imprisoned by dark
[Chorus]
    Am
You found me dressed in black

F             C
Hiding way up at the back

         G
Life had broken my heart into pieces

Am
You took my hand in yours

F                    C
You started breaking down my walls

        G
And you covered my heart in kisses

Am                       F
I thought life passed me by

                 C
Missed my tears, ignored my cries

         G
Life had broken my heart, my spirit

Am                      F
And then you crossed my path

                          C
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

         G                            Am
Then you covered my heart in kisses
[Verse 2]
Am                       F
I was down for the count

      C                G
I was down, I was out 

Am                F
And I had lost it all

           C                   G
Yes, I was scared, I was torn

Am            F
I took to the night

          C                G
I'd given in to the fight

Am                   F
And I slipped further down

       C                    E
I felt like I had drowned
[Chorus]
    Am                  F
You found me dressed in black

              C
Hiding way up at the back

         G
Life had broken my heart into pieces

Am                  F
You took my hand in yours

                     C
You started breaking down my walls

        G
And you covered my heart in kisses

Am                       F
I thought life passed me by

                   C
Missed my tears, ignored my cries

         G
Life had broken my heart, my spirit

Am                      F
And then you crossed my path

                          C
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

         G                            Am
Then you covered my heart in kisses
[Bridge]
Dm    Am
I was hopeless and broken

    C                   G
You opened the door for me

Dm          Am                  C
Yeah, I was hiding and you let the light in

         G
And now I see

Dm       Am
That you do for the wounded

     C
What they couldn't seem to

    G
You set them free

Dm     Am                  C                         G     E
Like a butterfly kissing a child with an eye for the minor key
[Chorus]
Am                      F
You found me dressed in black

                      C
Hiding way up at the back

         G
Life had broken my heart into pieces

Am                  F
You took my hand in yours

                      C
You started breaking down my walls

        G
And you covered my heart in kisses

Am                       F
I thought life passed me by

                   C
Missed my tears, ignored my cries

         G
Life had broken my heart, my spirit

Am                      F
And then you crossed my path

                          C
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

         G
Then you covered my heart in kisses
