[Verse 1]~
C G Am
I watch your troubled eyes as you rest
F G C
And I fall in love with every breath
C G Am
Wonder if those eyes are really shut
F G C
And 'am I the one you're dreaming of?'
[Pre Chorus]~
F G
Cause underneath the darkness
C G Am
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen
F G
And I know this cause I notice
C G Am
A little bit shining through the seams
[Chorus]~
C Dm Am
And if this is what it takes
G C Dm Am G
then let me be the one to bear the pain
C Dm Am
If this is what it takes
G Dm C F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way
G
If this is what it takes
[Verse 2]~
C G Am
You keep on telling me I'm wasting time
F G C
But to call it wasting time, oh that's a crime
C G Am
And you think it's crazy what I'm tryna do
F G C
Well baby, I'm a fool for you
[Pre Chorus]~
F G
Cause underneath the darkness
C G Am
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen
F G
And I know this cause I notice
C G Am
A little bit shining through the seams
[Chorus]~
C Dm Am
And if this is what it takes
G C Dm Am G
then let me be the one to bear the pain
C Dm Am
If this is what it takes
G Dm C F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way
G C
If this is what it takes
[Bridge]~
F
Cause if you don't understand yet
G
Then I'll never let you forget
Am
That you don't have to do this on your own
F
I'll be your shoulder to lean on
G
I'll be your right when you feel wrong
Am C
So c'mon take my hand, we're moving on
[Chorus]~
C Dm Am
And if this is what it takes
G C Dm Am G
then let me be the one to bear the pain
C Dm Am
If this is what it takes
G Dm C F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way
G C
If this is what it takes
[Verse 1]
I watch your troubled eyes as you rest
And I fall in love with every breath
Wonder if those eyes are really shut
And 'am I the one you're dreaming of?'
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause underneath the darkness
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen
And I know this cause I’ve noticed
A little bit shining through the seams
[Chorus]
And if this is what it takes then let me be the one to bear the pain
If this is what it takes
I'll break down these walls that are in our way
If this is what it takes
[Verse 2]
You keep on telling me I'm wasting time
But to call it wasting time, oh that's a crime
And you think it's crazy what I'm tryna do
Well baby, I'm a fool for you
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause underneath the darkness
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen
And I know this cause I’ve noticed
A little bit shining through the seams
[Chorus]
And if this is what it takes then let me be the one to bear the pain
If this is what it takes
I'll break down these walls that are in our way
[Bridge]
Cause if you don't understand yet
Then I'll never let you forget
That you don't have to do this on your own
I'll be your shoulder to lean on
I'll be your right when you feel wrong
So come on, take my hand, we're moving on
[Chorus]
And if this is what it takes then let me be the one to bear the pain
If this is what it takes
I'll break down these walls, these walls that are in our way
If this is what it takes
