CAPO ON 4TH FRET
Fadd#11 13320x
Intro
G G Dm Cmaj7 x2
Verse 1
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to re-assemble it
And my mama swore that she would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love
if it does not exist, but darling
Chorus
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Verse 2
Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face
And I've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable distance
And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk
Chorus
Well, you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Instrumental
(Am) Am G D
Bridge
I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't
Let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, whoa
Chorus
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Outro
And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
