Am Em Am Em

Am Am

VERSE 1

Am Em Am

In a world so cynical

You came in and changed the ball

From black to white

And made me right

Em Am

This is all atypical

No-one else has had the time

To read the signs

CHORUS

Dm G

You are the only one

No-one else can keep me from

G Am

The danger of myself

You keep me stronger

You are the only one

And now I love you even more

Than I did before

VERSE 2

Am Em Am

I get such a jealous side

Reaching out I try to hide

My infant stride

And in my mind

Em Am

This is all so prototype

I make it wrong to make it feel right

You don't deny it

CHORUS

Dm G

You are the only one

No-one else can keep me from

G Am

The danger I possess

You keep me stronger

You are the only one

And now I love you even more

Than I did before

BRIDGE

A#/F F

And when they make the call for one last drink

C F

When my self esteem sinks below

C F A#/F

And when no-one knows it

When the colours all collide inside

Am Em Am Em

And I can barely hi~ii~iide, oh oh oh

CHORUS

Dm G

You are the only one

No-one else can keep me from

G Am

The danger of myself

You keep me stronger

You are the only one

And now I love you

Even more there is no other

Am Dm

No-one else I place above ya

You are the only one

And now I love you even more

G Am

Than I did before-oh-oh oh-ohh
