F                   Bb
I've never been the dramatic type

                        C
But if I don't see your face tonight

Bb                    F
I, I guess I'll be fine
[Verse 2]
F                        Bb
High, highlighting hard between the lines

                           C
But they're getting closer every time

  Bb                     F
I try, decipher the signs

Like we're slowing comin' together

Oh, I, I think I love you

How could this happen?

We were jump rope gazers in the middle of the night
[Verse 3] (palm muted)
F                      Bb
Hide my heart behind a brighter light

                           C
So you struggle, straining eyes to find

Bb                     F
Why we made it this way
[Verse 4]
F                          Bb
Stay, my hopes are prone to elevate

                      C
The way your mind and mine relate

   Bb                       F
It breaks the patterns we make
[Pre-Chorus]
             C
Still, we're slowly comin' together

           Bb
Yeah, it's slowly comin' out

         C
But it's only for a second

           Bb
Then it is all is crumbling down

        F    Bb  Dm C Bb
Around us
[Chorus]

Oh, I remember watching the waves rollin' in

Bb                                               C
Numbered in the thousands, collect, break up again

                                                 Bb
I was just waitin' for the grazes on my hands to mend

I was afraid of the sting
