[Verse]
Cadd9
Something about
Em
the way you move
C
softened these eyes
                G
and cracked the walls that
hid my truth
Cadd9
I don't know how
    Em
your fine mystery
C
knew all my doubts
            G
and what to say to set me free

[Chorus]
     Cadd9
Inevitable
     Em
Even if I tried to fight it
       C
No one ever crashed their
tide in me
     G
this hard
     Cadd9
Inevitable
         Em
We don't have to chase the feeling
     C
Just let these moments happen
        G
and let go

[Bridge]
           Cadd9
Then we'll know
         G
Oo-oo-oo-oo
           Cadd9
Then we'll know
         G
Oo-oo-oo-oo

[Verse]
Cadd9
Closer we flow
Em
a day at a time
C
but if you should leave
G
be on your way, I might be fine
Cadd9
So take what you want
Em
you know that I am yours
C
My cup is full
G
and so I want to fill you more

[Chorus]
     Cadd9
Inevitable
     Em
Even if I tried to fight it
       C
No one ever crashed their
tide in me
     G
this hard
     Cadd9
Inevitable
         Em
We don't have to chase the feeling
     C
Just let these moments happen
        G
and let go

[Bridge]
           Cadd9
Then we'll know
         G
Oo-oo-oo-oo
           Cadd9
Then we'll know
         G
Oo-oo-oo-oo
           Cadd9
Then we'll know
         G
Oo-oo-oo-oo
           Cadd9
Then we'll know
         G
Oo-oo-oo-oo
