[Verse 1]
C
Daybreaks, earthquakes, waves come without you
Dm
When I see you, in my dreams you
C
Never speak never do you need to
Dm
Understanding under your wave
C
Under the impression you gave me
Dm
Did I take it did it take me
C
Further in this continuation
Dm F
Become patient because there are some
[Chorus]
C
Some rules I cannot break
F
You showed me when you came
The ghost is supposed to love
C
And why do I feel pain
F C
Because nothing is for keeps
F
You just can't hold a cloud
The shape will always change
C
And one day come back down
[Instrumental]
C C C C
[Verse 2]
C
Night falls on all of our decisions
Dm
All our plans and all ambitions
C
And this darkness comes to define us
Dm
Comes to take us and remind us
C
Find our way from this side of thinking
Dm
Unafraid and under your wing
C Dm
Night falls on us either way
F
Because there are some
[Chorus]
C
Some rules I cannot break
F
You showed me when you came
The ghost is supposed to love
C
And why do I feel pain
F C
Because nothing is for keeps
F
You just can't hold a cloud
The shape will always change
C
And one day come back down
[Bridge]
C Dm
Cause night falls on us, either way
C Dm
Night falls on us, either way
[Chorus]
C
Some rules I cannot break
F
You showed me when you came
The ghost is supposed to love
C
And why do I feel pain
F C
Because nothing is for keeps
F
You just can't hold a cloud
The shape will always change
C
And one day come back down
