Verse 1
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [D]
You know the distance never made a difference to me
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [D]
I swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked across the floor of any sea
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [A] [Bm]
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen
[F#m]
And all that we believe
Chorus
[A] [G] [G] [D] [Dsus2]
So I thought you were like an angel to me
[D] [Dsus2] [Em7] [Bm7]
Verse 2
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [D]
Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [D]
If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in thе mind of me
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [A] [Bm]
Where a blinding light shonе on you every night
[F#m]
Either side of my sleep
Chorus
[A] [G] [G] [D] [Dsus2]
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me
[Post-Chorus]
[Dsus2]
It ain't the being alone
[Em7]
Sha-la-la
[Dsus2] [Em7]
It ain't the empty home, baby
[Bm7] [Em7]
You know I'm good on my own
[Dsus2] [G] [G] [D] [Dsus2]
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
[G] [D]
So much of the living, love, is the being unknown
[D] [Bm] [D]
Verse 3
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [D]
You called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [D]
You smile now, I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [A] [Bm]
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick
[F#m]
Every tedious beat
Chorus
[A] [G] [G] [D] [Dsus2]
Going unknown as any angel to me
Bridge
[Em7] [Bm] [G]
Do you know I could break beneath the weight
[Em7] [A] [G]
Of the goodness love I still carry for you
[Em7] [Bm] [G]
That I'd walk so far just to take
[D] [A] [G]
The injury of finally knowing you
[Post-Chorus]
[Dsus2]
It ain't the being alone
[Em7]
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la, la, la-la
[Dsus2] [Em7] [G]
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha-la-la, la-la-la)
[Bm7] [Em7]
You know I'm good on my own
[Dsus2] [G] [G] [D] [Dsus2]
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
[G] [D]
And there are some people, love, who are better unknown
