Capo 1

[Intro]

Am F Am F

[Verse 1]

Am C

I won't lose you to love,

I won't lose you to time,

Had me thinking about the way you smiled

Am C

I will choose to give in

Every morning we win

Had me singing about a thousand lines

[Pre Chorus]

F C

Now every black is white

And colour as though they might

We climb the highest height

[Chorus]

You want to see everything, and

I want to be your paraffin, and

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

I wanna float, I'm following and

You're running round, you're travelling round

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

[Chorus]

Am C

A hundred days apart,

This is a work of art

Got me thinking about the winter nights

Am C

I shiver through my skin

Feeling a warmth within

I know we're both watching the same sun glow

[Chorus]

You want to see everything, and

I want to be your paraffin, and

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

I wanna float, I'm following and

You're running round, you're travelling round

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

[Pre Chorus]

F C

Now every black is white

And colour as though they might

We climb the highest height

[Chorus]

You want to see everything, and

I want to be your paraffin, and

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

I wanna float, I'm following and

You're running round, you're travelling round

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

[Outro]

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow

You and I, you and I, you and I will grow

You and I, you and I will grow, grow
