• C

Intro: C Em F Fm Em Am Dm G 

Verse 1:
 
C                          Em        
Running through the forest hand in hand 
F                     Fm 
Jumping over streams, talking 'bout our dreams 
    Em        Am        Dm    G 
We laugh, we smile, we dance 
C                     Em  
Would you give it one more chance? 
F                     Fm  
Please, don't let me leave this place 
   Em                   Am        Dm     E7 
I really, really don't wanna wake up 
        Am                               Em  
'Cause then I'll have to face all the thoughts that race 
F                Fm            
How it all ended up the same  
   Em       G          C  
Without you here in my arms 

 
C   Em  F   Fm           Em  Am           Dm   E7 
Keeeeeeeeeeeeeep holding on (Keep holding oooon) 
Am  Em  F     Fm      Em  G C 
Keeeeeeeeeeeep holding ooooooon 

Verse 2:
 
  C                           Em              
Remember how we laughed, our hearts beating fast 
F                   Fm  
It was like a scene straight from tv 
    Em                 Am         Dm   E7 
We sped away from the cops on our feet 
   Am          Em             F              Fm  
To find a spot on a hill that overlooked the city still 
     Em  G          C  
With you here in my arms 

  
C   Em  F   Fm           Em  Am           Dm   E7 
Keeeeeeeeeeeeeep holding on (Keep holding oooon) 
Am  Em  F     Fm      Em  G C 
Keeeeeeeeeeeep holding ooooooon 

Verse 3:
 
C                         Em  
Don't forget the pictures in our minds 
      F            Fm                Em   Am               Dm      E7 
On the floor at the station, we could care less what people thought 
     Am            Em                F     Fm  
The only two in a sea of blur at the turn in 'nother year  
     Em  G          C  
With you here in my arms 

Verse 4:
 
C         Em             F            Fm  
Pizza and pasta with the band playing Sinatra 
        Em       Am       Dm    E7 
Nothing else can never compete 
       Am        Em                 F         Fm 
Like a two piece puzzle, they don't even come close 
     Em  G          C  
With you here in my arms 

Bridge: 

Am            Em 
We travel the world 
F                      Fm 
Pampas from Brazil and brats from Belgium 
Am                     Em 
There are so many more places to discover 
      F                         Fm 
And I wouldn't wanna do it with another 

Verse 5:
 
      C          Em               F            Fm     
Don't forget the journey's in the snow solving mysteries 
Em         Am             Dm     E7 
And in the desert full of camels 
     Am          Em           F      Fm  
As I finish this song, I have one request  
     Em  G        C 
That you be in my arms
