[G]We’ll do it all, [D]every[C]thing, on our [G]own. [G]We don’t [D]need any[C]thing, or any[G]one.

If I [G]lay here, if I just [D]lay here Would you lie [C]with me, and just forget the [G]world.

[G]I don’t quite [D]know how to [C]say how I [G]feel [G]Those three [D]words, I said too [C]much, but not [G]enough.

[G]If I lay here, if I just [D]lay here Would you [C]lie with me, and just forget [G]the world.

[G]Forget what we’re told, before we get [D]too old Show me a [C]garden that’s bursting into [G]life.

[G]Let’s waste time, [D]chasing [C]cars, around our [G]heads. [G]I need your [D]grace to remind [C]me, to find my [G]own.

If I [G]lay here, if I just [D]lay here Would you lie [C]with me, and just forget the [G]world.

[G]Forget what we’re told, before we get [D]too old Show me a [C]garden that’s bursting into [G]life.

[G]All that I am, all that [D]I ever was Is here in your perfect [C]eyes, they’re all I can [G]see

[G]I don’t know where, confused about [D]how as well Just know that these [C]things will never change for us at [G]all.

If I [G]lay here, if I just [D]lay here Would you lie [C]with me, and just forget the [G]world.
