[Intro]
G# A# Gm G# x4
[Verse 1]
G# A#
If I could take back all the things I wish I never said
Gm G#
I wish I never felt the way I did the day you left
G# A#
I was a stupid kid twenty-something
Gm G#
Watching myself sing on TV

No way to know that there's
No way to know what to expect

Suddenly it's as if it's almost overnight success

Somehow lightning in a bottle ricochets

Lights a spark underground

And on the corner of Victorian & 21st

On Halloween I step outside and see you standing

Like starlight through diamonds
[Chorus 1]
G# A# Gm
When I met you I was on my own
G# G#
Twenty-two living alone
A# Gm G#
Wasted on the cover of a magazine

Stranger from the start what went wrong?

Without you I was lost forever

G# A#
On an endless night on an endless drive
Gm G#
I read your words about a thousand times
G# A#
Saying things like there's a lazy moon outside
Gm G#
Right now can you see it laying on its side?
G# A#
I wake up way too early stay up way too late
Gm G#
Trying to picture your face
G# A#
Please send a polaroid get it that Saturday
Gm G#
Your yellow envelope I still have to this day
[Refrain 2]
Cm A#
I was a sideways zig-zag upside down
G#
Stuck tongue-tied crisscrossed X's
Cm A#
Where my eyes once were and the light that was gone
G#
Before I met you somehow came back on
[Chorus 2]
G# A# Gm
When I met you I was on my own
G# G#
Twenty-two living alone
A# Gm G#
Wasted on the cover of a magazine

[Part VI: "Angel"]
[Intro]
A#
[Verse 1]
D#
Maybe someday I can show you
A# G#
How much you mean to me
G# A#
Even though I know you see
A#
My smiling eyes begin to stream
G# Gm G#
A love wells up inside me
A#
Almost too much to take
G# Gm G#
Sometimes I break down crying
A#
That's how much you mean to me
[Chorus 1]
D# A#
You're the light in a heartbroken world
G#
And I was a lost cause
D# A#
Before you I almost forgot
G#
What the point was
D# A#
In the end if it's all just a dream
G#
At least we're together
D# A# G#
If I'm with you I could stay lost forever
[Verse 2]
A#
And if I were barely breathing
G#
I'd still confess my love
G# A#
Even when I see you clearly hope
A#
I catch on quick and stop
G# Gm G#
If my zipped lips were sewn shut
A#
Collar up I'd keep it cool
G# Gm G#
The light in my heart beaming
A#
Shining brighter than the sun
[Chorus 2]
D# A#
You're the light in a heartbroken world
G#
And I was a lost cause
D# A#
Before you I almost forgot
G#
What the point was
D# A#
In the end if it's all just a dream
G#
At least we're together
D# A# G#
If I'm with you I could stay lost forever
[Intrumental]
A# x4
[Verse 3]
D#
There was a time before this
A# G#
Back when we were young
G# A#
I still remember how
A#
You brought me back to life again
G# Gm G#
I looked in your blue-green eyes
A#
You're looking back at me
G# Gm G#
My heart explodes in sunlight
A#
You mean everything to me
[Chorus 2]
D# A#
You're the light in a heartbroken world
G#
And I was a lost cause
D# A#
Before you I almost forgot
G#
What the point was
D# A#
In the end if it's all just a dream
G#
At least we're together
D# A# G#
If I'm with you I could stay lost forever
[Outro]
D# A# G#
If I'm with you I could stay lost forever
D# A# G#
If I'm with you I could stay lost forever

[Part VII: "Jersey Kid"]
[Intro]
D#
[Verse 1]
D# A# G#
I was just a Jersey kid born in a daydream
D# A# G#
Blue skies and a white gold sun down a long driveway
D# A#
In an old white house I remember my dad walk up
G#
His eyes shining like clear blue streams
D# A#
And when he smiled at me
G#
I knew everything would be okay
[Chorus 1]
D# A#
Well somehow (somehow) sometime (sometime)
G# D# A# G#
I know it'll be all right we are alive in the world
[Verse 2]
D# A#
Back when you could see the Milky Way
G#
In blue starlight in an ocean sky
D# A#
I could've laid there for a thousand years
G#
Connecting dots in a ring of fire
D# A#
Drawing circles that hang in the air
G#
Like fireworks and diamond stars
D# A#
In her mother's arms her sapphire eyes
G#
Was all the love I'd ever need
[Chorus 2]
D# A#
Well somehow (somehow) sometime (sometime)
G# D# A# G#
I know it'll be all right we are alive in the world
D# A#
Yeah somehow (somehow) sometime (sometime)
G# D# A# G#
I know it'll be all right we are alive in the world
D#
Alive in the world
