VERSE ONE:

           C        G      Am
You're the sky that I fell through
         C           G
And I re-mem-ber the view
     Am        F          C
When-ev-er I'm holding you

             G      Am
The sun hung from a string
        C           G
Looking down on the world 
      Am         F         C
As it warms over everything

           G       F
Chills run down my spine
       C          G
As our fingers en-twine
         Am           F             C
And your sighs har-mo-nize with mine

       G     F
Un-mis-tak-a-bly
      C               G
I can still feel your heart 
     Am            F            C
Beat fast when you dance with me



BRIDGE:

       Em        Am          F
We got older and I should've known
               Dm
(Do you feel a-live?)
               Em         Am       F
That I'd feel colder when I walk a-lone
                    Dm
(Oh, but you'll sur-vive)
     Em          F            G
So I may as well ditch my dis-may
        C   G           C   G C
Bombs a-waa-ay, bombs a-waa-ay



CHORUS:

       G          F            G          C
Circle me and the needle moves gracefully-y
         G
Back and forth
      F           G                C
If my heart was a compass you'd be north
        G              F            G
Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall
      C        G
Where-ever you go
      F           G              C
If my heart was a house you'd be home



INTERIM: C G Am F C G F G C



VERSE TWO:

            C             G           Am
It makes me smile because you said it best
        C            G
I would clearly feel blessed
       Am          F            C
If the sun rose up from the west

       G        Am
Flower balm per-fume
       C                  G
All my clothes smell like you
           Am                F        C
Cause your fav'rite shade is navy blue



BRIDGE:

       Em          Am        F
I walk slowly when I'm on my own
               Dm
(Do you feel a-live?)
          Em       Am           F
Yea, but frankly I still feel a-lone
                    Dm
(Oh, but you'll sur-vive)
     Em          Am           G
So I may as well ditch my dis-may
        C   G           C   G C
Bombs a-waa-ay, bombs a-waa-ay



CHORUS:

       G          F            G          C
Circle me and the needle moves gracefully-y
         G
Back and forth
      F           G                C
If my heart was a compass you'd be north
        G              F            G
Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall
      C        G
Where-ever you go
      F           G              C
If my heart was a house you'd be home



END:

C G Am F C G

      F           G              C
If my heart was a house you'd be home

line of the chorus with a G7 instead of 
regular G, like so:

      F           G7             C
If my heart was a house you'd be home
