[Verse 1]
                      Bm
Do you think I'd give up?
                     A
That this might've shook
 the love from me
F#m
 Or that I was on the brink
                F#
How could you think, darlin'
        C               G
  I'd scare so easily?
               Bm
Now that it's done
                  A
There's not one thing
                   F#m
that I would change
My life was a storm
              F#
 since I was born
             C
How could I fear
                G
any hurricane?

[Pre-Chorus]
           Em
If someone asked
me at the end
[Chorus]
I'd tell them,
                A
"Put me back in it"
        F#m
Da-ah, darlin',
                 G
I would do it again
(Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Bm
 If I could hold you
               A
 for a minute
           F#m
Da-ah, darlin', I'd go
              G
 through it again
  Bm
  (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Post-Chorus]
          A
I would still be surprised
          F#m
I could find you, darlin',
     C
 in any life
G                 Bm
 If I could hold you
for a minute
A        F#m
 Da-ah, darlin', I would
         G    Bm
 do it again   (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Verse 2]
                  Bm
For all that was said
                  A
Of where we'd end up
 at the end of it
F#m
 When the heart
would cease,

ours nеver knew peacе
                    C
What good would it be
on the far side of
         G
 things?
            Bm
It was too soon
                   A
When that part of you
was ripped away
F#m
 A grip takin' hold like
                 F#
 a cancer that grows
                    C
Each piece of your body
            G
 that it takes
