[Verse 1]
D
Though we jump through
  A         D        A
 hoops and dance on wires
D       A
Walk on broken glass
      E         D
and play with fire
                  A
Though we're blindfolded
         D           A
 when we turn on the light
D      A
I know everythin'
      E    D
will be alright

If you trust in true love
        D         A
 and you trust in time

If you trust in forever,

                 A
We could lose ourselves

[Verse 2]
D        A
Too many people have
D         A
 been let down
   D      A        E
By broken promises on
       D
rocky ground
And there's cracks
        A
in the pavement
       D      A
I don't wanna fall through
D          A
Hold on to me and I'll
 E          D
 hold on to you

[Verse 3]
D              A      D
Now, there are cynics
           A      D
With rusty knives
          A
Tryin' to cut away
     E           D
 the good in our lives
            A    D
But I don't care what
        A
 they believe
D           A
With you, I have
      E       D
everythin' I need
