[Verse 1]
[Em]I wa[C]s[G][D]
[Em]counting
down minutes.
I was [C]wishin' on the stars.
[G]I was prayin' for a sign,
[D]And tryin' to beat the odds.
I was [Em]dreamin' of you,
Love before [C]I saw [D]your [G]face.
And there you were,
Wait[D]in' for that day.
Then [Am]you reached through
the [G]hur[Em]ricane,
When [Am]you b[G]aby you called m[Cm]y name.

[Verse 2]
You broke through [G]the storm,
And you turned back [Em]the night.
Baby you are [C]the fire,
Burnin' the mid[Cm]night sky,
And [C]your [G]love,
Keeps taking [Em]me hi[E]gher.
Just when [Am]all hope w[G]as gone,
Where [C]the hero be[Dsus4]longs[D]
There [Em]you were.
[C][G]

[Verse 3]
[D][G]
[D]Must have bro[Em]ken into heaven,
Just to [C]roll back the clouds.
Were you [G]on a mission.
Were you seek[D]in' me out.
Was I [Em]that one in a million.
Was I that [C]one sacred kiss,
That [G]you couldn't chance,
You [D]just couldn't miss.
Then [Am]you whispers through
the si[G]lent [Em]tears,
When [Am]you swept a[Cm]way all my fears.
You [C]broke through [G]the storm,

[Verse 4]
And you turned back [Em]the night.
Baby you are [C]the fire,
Burnin' the mid[Cm]night sky,
And your [G]love,
Keeps taking [Em]me hi[E]gher.
Just when [Am]all hope w[G]as gone,
Where [C]the hero be[Dsus4]long s...[D]
There you [C]were.

[Verse 5]
Standin' [D]in the [G]middle of [C]nowhere,
With your [D]arms wide [G]open and [Em]you,
You were the [D]reason [A]when
there was no [D]reason.
In [C]my [Am]life[D][C]
You're [Ebsus4]the reas on[Db] in my
life.
