CAPO ON 4TH FRET
[Intro]
[G] [Dm] [Cmaj7] [x2]
[Verse1]
[G]When I was younger I saw
my daddy [Dm]cry and curse at the w[Cmaj7]wind
He [G]broke his own heart and I
watched as he tried to [Dm]re-assemble [Cmaj7]it
And [G]my mama swore that she would never let [Dm]herself for[Cmaj7]forget
And [G]that was the day that I
promised I'd never sing of [Dm]love
if it does not e[Cmaj7]exist, but darling
[Chorus]
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception [G]
[Verse2]
Maybe I know somewhere deep in
my [Dm]soul that love never [Cmaj7]lasts
And [G]we've got to find other ways to
make it al[Dm]alone or keep a straight [Cmaj7]face
And [G]I've always lived like
this, keeping a co[Dm]comfortable [Cmaj7]distance
And [G]up until now I had sworn to
myself that I'm con[Dm]content with loneli[Cmaj7]loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk
[Chorus]
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exceptio[Am]exception
[Solo]
[G] [D] [Am] [G] [D]
[Bridge]
I've got a [Am]tight grip on reality, but I can't
Let [G]go of what's in front of me [D]here
I know you're [Am]leaving in the morning when you wake up
Leave me [G]with some kind of proof it's not a [D]dream, whoa[C]whoa
[Chorus]
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception
[G]You are the only exception
[Dm]You are the [Cmaj7]only exception
[Outro]
And [F]I'm on my w[C]way to believing [G]
Oh, and [F]I'm on my w[C]way to believing. [G]
