[Intro]
  E    C    D   Ex2
[Verse 1]
EHow, C#mhow can it Dbe
That a Bm7love carved out of Ecaring
Fashioned by C#mfate
Could suffer Dso hard
From the Bm7games played once too EoftenC#m  
But making miDstakes
Is a Bm7part of life's imperEfections
Born of the C#myears
Is it Dso wrong
To be Bm7human after Eall
[Pre-Chorus]
EDrawn into the Cstream
Of Dundefined illEusion
Those diamond Cdreams
They Dcan't disguise the Etruth
[Chorus]
That there is something Cabout you, Dbaby, so Eright
I wouldn't Cbe without you, Dbaby, toEnight
[Verse 2]
C#mIf ever our Dlove was conBm7cealed
No one can Esay that we didn't C#mfeel
A million Dthings and a Bm7perfect dream of Elife
C#mGone, fragile but Dfree
We Bm7remain tender toEgether
If not so in C#mlove
It's not Dso wrong
We're only Bm7human after Eall
[Pre-Chorus]
EThese changing Cyears
They Dadd to your conEfusion
EOh and you need to Chear
The Dtime that told the Etruth
[Chorus]
EBecause there's something Cabout you, Dbaby, so Eright
EI couldn't live withCout you, Dbaby, toEnight
EAnd that there's something about Cyou
DYeah
EAnd I couldn't Clive without yDou toEnight
