Verse – Her
[Em] Under bloodshot morning skies
[C] Live the cracks of yesterday
[G] My soul still wears his fingerprints—
[D] No matter how I pray
[Em] I fold into silence
[C] In shoes that never fit
[G] But your eyes said, “stay awhile,”
[D] Like I was more than I could give
Pre-Chorus – Her
[C] And when you said my name,
[D] The dark began to fade
[Em] I held on to its memory
[B7] Like it could fix my heart
Chorus – Both (Her leading, Him harmonizing)
[Em] Come find me—pull down the sky!
[C] Let it cover my pain—Pull down the sky—
[D] Let the stars blur and fall
[Em] --I wanna forget it all.
[C] I’ve got a thousand reasons… to go,
[G] he’s—the one good reason,
[D] The only one I know.
Verse 2 – Him
[Em] She was born and broken in beauty,
[C] The oceans live in her eyes
[G] I’d drown to keep on looking
[D] At the love she sees inside
[Em] She taught the stars how to shine
[C] The moon to lament
[G] Lonely lady bring your solitude to me,
[D] I promise you won’t regret
Pre-Chorus – Him
[C] And even in her silence,
[D] I feel her burning through—
[Em] A fire forged from sorrow,
[B7] A force I never knew.
Chorus – Both (Him leading, Her harmonizing)
[Em] Come find me…lift the sky!
[C] Take away the hurt she hides.
[G] Lift the sky—
[D] Let the night unwind,
[Em] --God give her peace tonight.
[C] I don’t need a thousand reasons to show—
[G] She is the reason
[D] I’ll never let her go.
Bridge – Both (in harmony)
[C] You found me in silence,
[G] I found you in the flame.
[Em] We never said salvation—
[D] We just said each other’s names.
Outro – Both (soft, closing harmony)
[C] We were never just the damage—
[Em] We were always something more.
