Verse:

E C#m7

A promise or a dare

A B

I would jump if I knew you'd catch me

E C#m

Staring over the edge

A B

I can't tell if you'll be here for me

A

I close my eyes and make a wish

C#m7

Turn out the lights and take a breath

D

Pray that when the wick is burned

A B E

You would say that it's all about love

Chorus:

E D

You were there when I needed you

A E

You were there when the skies broke wide, wide

open

E D

You were there when I needed you

A E

You were there when the skies broke wide, wide

open

Verse:

E C#m B

You were never here

E C#m

I remember you said

A B

Love was more than your good intentions

Empty boxes on the floor

Things I never asked you for

D

I pray that when the wick is burned

A B E

You would say that it's all about love

[Chorus]

D A E A#m7add5 D A

I can't see the promise of

C#m7 A#m7add5

Excuses you fall upon

I pray to God not holding on

B B# A A#m7add5 A

B# A

To things you've left undone

[Chorus x 2]

You were there when I

You were there when I
