Tom:
C Am
Yesterday you came to lift me up
F C
As light as straw and brittle as a bird
Dm Am
Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall
G C Am7 G/B
Just one more whisper of a voice Unheard
C Am
leave the windows open
F C
As fear grows please hold me in your arms
Dm Am
Won't you help me if you can to shake this anger
G C Am7 G/B
I need your gentle hands to keep me calm
C
'cause I never thought I'd lose
G/B
I only thought I'd win
Am Em/G
I never dreamed I'd feel this fire beneath my skin

I can't believe you love me
C Am
I never thought you'd come

I guess I misjudeaged love

Between a father and his son

Bridge:
C Am
Things we never said come together
F C
The hidden truth no longer haunt me
Dm Am
Tonight we touched on the things that were never spoken
G C Am7 G/B
That kind of understanding sets me free
