Verse 1: Do intro riff
And we Gsaid it would be funny
to keep me hanging in suspense
Then I'd C9run over to your house
and I'd scale the chainlink fence
That Em7borders your back yard and
then I'd climb through your window
And I'd C9whisper that I love you
as you fall out of your clothes
And we'd Glay there in the
darkness like the dream of you I had
Where we C9captured all the
fireflies and knew what time we had
Could be Em7counted on our fingertips
that almost made you cry
You C9let me hold you tightly
as we said all our goodbyes
Refrain 1:
  C9May I say I loved you Em7more
  C9May I say I loved you Em7more
Interlude: C9  
Verse 2:
And it Gmust of been and hour
that I clutched you in my arms
And I C9must have said the right
things because you instantly felt warm
And you Em7heard my heart stop
beating and you wanted not to cry
As your C9sympathetic whispers
they told a tale of bad goodbyes
And You sGwore you saw me laughing
and I swore I saw you smile
And this C9time we've spent together
was meant to last us quite a while
As I Em7take this piece of you with
me I'll carry to my grave
C9Knowing that for someone you're
an angel sent to save
Refrain 2:
(Keep Breathing my angel
if you go down I go with you)
  C9May I saw I loved you Em7more
(Keep Breathing
Just Keep Breathing)
(Keep Breathing my angel
if you go down I go with you)
  C9May I saw I loved you Em7more
(Keep Breathing
Just Keep Breathing)

  C9Let's drink to
memories we shared
before too long
you'll be a memory
  Em7Down one to all
the hopes and cares
Because before too

Verse 1: Do intro riff

And we said it would be funny

to keep me hanging in suspense

Then I'd run over to your house

and I'd scale the chainlink fence

Em7

That borders your back yard and

then I'd climb through your window

And I'd whisper that I love you

as you fall out of your clothes

And we'd lay there in the

darkness like the dream of you I had

Where we captured all the

fireflies and knew what time we had

Em7

Could be counted on our fingertips

that almost made you cry

You let me hold you tightly

as we said all our goodbyes

Refrain 1:

C9 Em7

May I say I loved you more

C9 Em7

May I say I loved you more

Interlude:

Verse 2:

And it must of been and hour

that I clutched you in my arms

And I must have said the right

things because you instantly felt warm

Em7

And you heard my heart stop

beating and you wanted not to cry

As your sympathetic whispers

they told a tale of bad goodbyes

And You swore you saw me laughing

and I swore I saw you smile

And this time we've spent together

was meant to last us quite a while

Em7

As I take this piece of you with

me I'll carry to my grave

Knowing that for someone you're

an angel sent to save

Refrain 2:

(Keep Breathing my angel

if you go down I go with you)

C9 Em7

May I saw I loved you more

(Keep Breathing

Just Keep Breathing)
