[Verse 1]
C G Am7
She is the sweetest thing that I know
F C
Should see the way she holds me when the lights go low
C G Am7 F C
Shakes my soul like a pothole every time
C G Am7
Took my heart upon a one way trip
F C
Guess she went wandering off with it
C G Am7
And unlike most women I know
F
This one will bring it back whole
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F C G Am7
Daisies, daisies perched upon your forehead
C F C G
Oh my baby, lately I know
[Chorus 1]
C G Am7
That every night I’ll kiss you, you’ll say in my ear
F G C
Oh we’re in love aren’t we?
C G Am7
Hands in your hair
F G C
Fingers and thumbs baby
C G Am7
I feel safe when you’re holding me near
F G C
Love the way that you conquer your fear
C G F
You know hearts don’t break around here
C G Am7
Oh yeah yeah yeah
F C G Am7 F
Yeah yeah, yeah-yeah
[Verse 2]
C G Am7
She is the river flowin’ Orwell
F C
And tin wind chimes used for doorbells
G Am7 F C
Fields and trees and her smell fill my lungs
C G Am7
Spend my summertime beside her
F C
And the rest of the year the same
C G Am7
She is the flint that sparks the lighter
F
And the fuel that will hold the flame, oh
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F C G Am7
Roses, roses laid upon your bedspread, oh my
F C G
All this, all this I know
[Chorus 2]
C G Am7
That every night I’ll kiss you, you’ll say in my ear
F G C
Oh we’re in love aren’t we?
C G Am7
Hands in your hair
F G C
Fingers and thumbs baby
C G Am7
I feel safe when you’re holding me near
F G C
Love the way that you conquer your fear
C G F
You know hearts don’t break around here, oh yeah yeah yeah
[Bridge]
F C G
Well I found love in the inside
Am7 G F
In the arms of the woman I know
C G
She is the lighthouse in the night
Am7 G F
That will safely guide me home
C G
And I’m not scared of passing over
Am7 G F
Or the thought of growing old
G
‘Cause from now until I go
[Chorus 3]
C G Am7
Every night I’ll kiss you, you’ll say in my ear
F G C
Oh we’re in love aren’t we?
C G Am7
Hands in your hair
F G C
Fingers and thumbs baby
C G Am7
I feel safe when you’re holding me near
F G C
Love the way that you conquer your fear
C G F
You know hearts don’t break around here, oh yeah yeah
[Chorus 4]
C G Am7
Every night I’ll kiss you, you’ll say in my ear
F G C
Oh we’re in love aren’t we?
C G Am7
Hands in your hair
F G C
Fingers and thumbs baby
C G Am7
I feel safe when you’re holding me near
F G C
Love the way that you conquer your fear
C G F
You know hearts don’t break around here, yeah yeah yeah
C G F
You know hearts don’t break around here, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah
