VERSE 1:
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G]
[Dsus]
There's a song that's inside of my soul,
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G]
[C9] [Dsus]
It's the one that I’ve tried to write over and over again.
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G] [C9] [Dsus]
I'm awake in the infinite cold,
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G]
[Dsus]
But you sing to me over and over and over again.
CHORUS:
[E] [B] [A]
So I lay my head back down,
[E] [B]
And I lift my hands and
[A] [B] [A]
Pray to be only yours,
[B] [A]
I pray to be only yours,
[C] [Cmaj7] [Em7] [D] [C9]
[C9] [Dsus]
I know now you're my only hope.
VERSE 2:
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G] [C9] [Dsus]
Sing to me the songs of the stars,
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G]
[Dsus]
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G]
[Dsus]
When it feels like my dreams are so far,
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G]
[Dsus]
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
[D] [Em7]
I give you my destiny,
[D] [Em7]
I'm giving you all of me.
[D] [Em7]
I want your symphony,
[Bm] [B]
Singing in all that I am.
[A] [B] [A]
At the top of my lungs,
[B] [A]
I'm giving it back.
REPEAT CHORUS (but with three ‘I pray to be only yours’ instead of two)
[Em7] [D] [C9] [G] [C9] [Dsus]
(humming for one chord progression)
