(Verse 1)
[C]Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh [G]oh
Only sound, only sound that you hear is "[F]no"
You never saw it coming
Slipped when you started running
And [C]now you've come undone and [G]I, I, I, I
[C]Seen you fall, seen you crawl on your knees, [G]eh eh
Seen you lost in a crowd, seen your colors [F]fade
Wish I could make it better
Someday you won't remember
This pain [C]you thought would last forever[G] and ever
(Chorus)
[D]there you'll stand, ten feet tall
[A]I will say, I knew it all along
[G]Your eyes' wider than distance
[Am]This life's sweeter than fiction
(Verse 2)
[C]Just a shot, just a shot in the dark, oh [G]oh
All you got, all you got are your shattered [F]hopes
They never saw it coming
You hit the ground running
[C]And now you're onto something,[G] I, I, I say
[C]What a sight, what a sight when the light [G]came on
Proved me right, proved me right when you proved [F]them wrong
And in this perfect weather
It's like we don't remember
[C]The rain we thought would last [G]forever and ever
(Chorus)
[D]there you'll stand, ten feet tall
[A]I will say, I knew it all along
[G]Your eyes' wider than distance
[Am]This life's sweeter than fiction
[D]There you'll stand, next to me
[A]All at once, the rest is history
[G]Your eyes' wider than distance
[Am]This life's sweeter than fiction, fiction
(Bridge)
[D]I'll be one of the many saying,
[Am]Look at you now, look at you now, now
[G]I'll be one of the many saying,
[Am]You made us proud, you made us proud, proud
[D]I'll be one of the many saying,
[Am]Look at you now, look at you now, now
[G]I'll be one of the many saying,
[Am]You made us proud, you made us proud, proud
[D]And when they call your name
And they [Am]put your picture in a frame
You know that[G] I'll be there time and again
'Cause I [A]loved you when, when you
(Verse 3)
[D]Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh
[A]Only sound, only sound that you heard was "no"
[G]Now in this perfect weather
It's like we don't remember
The rain we thought would last forever and ever (forever)
(Chorus)
[D]There you'll stand, ten feet tall
[A]I will say, I knew it all along
[G]Your eyes' wider than distance
[Am]This life's sweeter than fiction
[D]There you'll stand next to me
[A]All at once, the rest is history
[G]Your eyes' wider than distance
[Am]This life's sweeter than fiction,[G] fiction
(Outro)
It's sweeter than [A]fiction
It's sweeter, [G]yeah
It's sweeter [Am]than, sweeter
Sweeter than [D]fiction
