[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Gsus4][C]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Keeping her [Am]bright eyes focused [F]on the coastline,
waiting for [Gsus4]you[C][Am]
Isn't she all of us pining [F]for that last kiss
A permanent truth,
[Am]a me[G]ans to get t[C]hrou[Am]gh
Maybe we'll cry whilst hopeful when we [F]think
about the past being [Gsus4]cruel[Am]
[F]Got a [Am]thought for those
who start to think of [F]love
As the pursuit of a fool,
it's [C]a palace from ruin
[F][Dm]
[Am]Deep into the night,
eyes closing
[F]Heart swollen with my
loving [C]for you[G][C][Am]
A solid embrace, kind [F]face
And then the hurt starts leaving the [C]room,
[F]fol[G]lowed by [C]goo[Am]ns
Sometimes it's open wide and
lights the [F]road at night
You've got a heart like
[G]the moon[Am]
Gather courage,
if you're [F]do ing something, do it
'Cause she got to go soon
[G][C]

[Verse 2]
[G]If I could now,
[Am]I'd never tell you not to love[G] her
However, leaving her [C]a long [Dm]way
[Am]from [G]her [F]home
And that ain't no promise,
cracking [G]over [Am]time
A private corner of Ro[G]ma[C]
Don't shadow the light,
[Dm]wait, [Am]good [G]love [F]grown
If [G]I could now,
[Am]if I[Dm] coul[Am]d now[G][F]
If [G]I could n[Am]ow, if I[C] could no[F]w
If I had you [Am]now
[F][G][Am][F]

[Verse 3]
[C][G][Am]
So keeping bright eyes focused on the [F]coastline
waiting [C]for you[G][Am]
Don't give me that bye-bye baby baby when
the [F]night moves into black [C]from the blue
The [G]nights [Am]you've been through
Just give me that wide smile [Dm]made for putting [F]songs
into the hearts [G]of the doomed[Am]
And catch a cold heart [F]staring at the water,
babe, remember [G]you flew[C][G]

[Verse 4]
If I could [Am]now,
I'd never tell you not to [G]love her
However, leaving her a [C]long [Dm]way
[Am]from [G]her [F]home
And that ain't no promise,
cracking [G]over [Am]time
A private corner of [G]Ro ma
Don't shadow the [C]light,
[Dm]wait, [Am]good love [G]grown[F]
If [G]I could [Am]now, if [G]I could [F]now
[G]If I could [Am]now, [G]if I could now

[Interlude 1]
[F][Dm][F][C][Am][C][G][Dm]
[F][C][Am][G][Dm][F][C][Am][G]
[F][C][Am][G][C]
[G]If I could [Am]now,

[Verse 5]
[Am]
I'd never [Dm]tell you not to [G]love her
However, leaving her a [C]long
[Dm]way [Am]from h[G]er home
[F]And that ain't no promise,
cracking [G]over time
[Am]A private corner of Ro m[G]a
Don't shadow the [C]light,
[Dm]wait, [Am]good [G]love [F]grown
So say what [C]you want,

[Verse 6]
dear
But the cour[C]age [F]was won
With the way that [C]you spoke here
When the dreaming was done
