Tom : Em
Em
I miss counting the stars
Em C D Bm
And I miss the way you kiss me
C
I miss the way you touch me
Em
I miss calling you mine
Em C
Baby you know who I am
D Bm C D
And there's nobody I'd rather dance with in the moonlight
C
I just want to go back
[Refrain]
[Refrão]
D Em C
I fear the emptiness will swallow me whole
D
This is my confession
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I am no hero and I'm not a saint
Em C G
I can't save the world
D
And I never asked for this
Em C G D
In your eyes I see the questions I don't have the answers for
[Próxima Parte]
C D Em
Arise suspicious minds
[Verse 2]
Em C D
You told yourself I was pure, certain that I would save you
B C
But if it crosses your mind that I was saving myself
D
Remind yourself that I'm dangerous!
Em C D
Maybe I'm not as honest as it seems, a siren dressed in silk
Bm C D C
Maybe I'm just selling a lie, a villain in disguise
[Refrain]
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
C D Em
Arise suspicious minds
[Verse 3]
Em D
I don't know if I'm praying, I don't know if I'm begging
But I have to believe that someone
C
Something out there can hear me
I have to know that there is a chance
D
I have to believe that I might escape this hell
Em
I fear I've lost myself and I don't know the way back
D
The way back to what I once was
C D Am
I Fatima? Am I Rusalka? Or am I just me? Sweet, innocent Annabel
[Bridge]
C D D# Em C D D# Em
Star crossed lovers in strife embracing on a battlefield
C D D# Em C D B Em
Giving in to the fight, changing at the speed of light
[Refrain]
C D Em C
I fear the emptiness will swallow me whole
D
This is my confession
