  			Verse 1: 
Bm                                D 
I guess we guess our way through life 
Bm                     D     A        Bm 
How many times do we really know for sure 
                           D 
I was just hoping for the best 
Bm                        D     A       G 
Then I woke up in those loving arms of yours 
             A                  G               A 
What I felt was unmistakeable, when I fell for you 
 
Chorus: 
        D            Bm 
It was real, it was magic 
        Em           G       A 
It was calm, it was savage 
        D                       Bm 
It was cool as a breeze it was warm to the touch 
        Em                   G 
It was never enough it was always too much 
   Bm            A          G 
It did all the things love does 
              A       D 
That's how I knew it was 
 
Verse 2: 
Who thought that I could laugh so loud 
Then turn around and cry so many tears 
I used to have so many doubts 
But one by one you made them disappear 
What I found was unbelievable, but I believe it's true 
 
CHORUS 
 
Bridge: 
A 
You asked what I felt when you walked through the door 
A 
Was it fear was it clear, it was all that and more 
 
CHORUS
