Verse
[Em]Baby when our hearts awoke
[F#7]Think of all the rules we broke
[Am]In the name of love we hoped

[F#7]Ignoring all the consequences
[Am]And hiding from big evidence
[Em]Hoping things would change

Keeping [F#]me alive till your [C#]rescue came

Verse
[Em]Wishful thinking spent in vain
[F#7]What to loose and what to gain
[Am]All the guilt and all the pain
[Em]Seemed to come away
[Em]And baby when our hearts awoke
[F#7]Think of all the rules we broke
[Am]In the name of love we spoke
[Em]Little did we know
Pre-Chorus
But the [C#]hope was there like a ray of sun on a [Bbm7]cloudy day
Any [C#]change from impossibility to [Bbm7]the only way
