I s[G]hould have seen you were coming, I should have been prepared.

After all, getting [Cadd9]half of what you [D]wish for isn't so rare.

But[G] still I wasn't ready, you took my by surprise,

you brought a [Cadd9]light to my dark like a [D]word from the w[G]ise

[Bm]Weather wears the [C]mountains [Am]right down into the s[D]ea,

so [B7]I will stand in the [Em]rain until [D]I am [C]clean

   (play this on the second time through on the second chorus)

[Bm]Rivers carve the [C]country, a [Am]landscape shaped by a s[D]tream,

so [B7]I will swim in the ri[Em]ver as l[D]ong as you n[C]eed.

We [G]fell in love in the summer, when the skies were clear,

but I[Cadd9]'m still wearing my [D]coat from winter last ye[G]ar

I n[G]eed to set my house in order, confess and cover my sins.

I need to [Cadd9]make a home for y[D]ou before inviting you [G]in

back to chorus x2

[Em]                [C]                    [D]
 [G/F#]  Darling oh my darling you know that everything that I do

is to [Em]try and make me go[C]od enough for yo[G]u

   [Em]             [C]                    [D]
D[G/B]arling oh my darling you know that everywhere that I go,

I'm just t[Em]rying to find the f[C]astest way back [G]home.

("back home.....")
