    [Intro]
E C#m A E x2
 
[Verse]
        C#m     A      E
I'm not asking you to run ahead
              C#m     A          E
But could you try to take a single step
                F#m
How can we move forward
                            A
When you're halfway out the door
          C#m      A         E
So you've made mistakes, you have regrets
        C#m      A        E
I don't need you to be perfect
                            F#m
Just promise that you'll be honest
                              A
I promise that it's worth the risk
 
[Chorus]
                     E                 F#
But I can't make you love me even if I try
                     C#m
I'm not gonna force you
                  A
You have to decide
                    E
I'm asking you to trust me
                F#                      C#m
When I say that I'm not here for the moment
                 A
I'm in this for life
               E                       F#m
Yes I know, I know you've been hurt before
                      C#m                 A
And life will lay you low, oh of that I'm sure
                 E                     F#m
But just say the word baby and I'm yours
          A
I'll be shelter, keep you safe and warm
 
[Verse]
       C#m      A       E
We can take it take it take it slow
                C#m        A              E
Cause it takes time to make this house a home
                 F#m                        A
And clean up the mess, those are the lovers left
Oh but the past is past
      C#m       A        E
So we're moving on, no turning back
                    F#m
I promise that I'm honest
                           A
There are greater things ahead
 
[Chorus]
                     E                 F#
But I can't make you love me even if I try
                     C#m
I'm not gonna force you
                  A
You have to decide
                    E
I'm asking you to trust me
                F#                      C#m
When I say that I'm not here for the moment
                 A
I'm in this for life
               E                       F#m
Yes I know, I know you've been hurt before
                      C#m                 A
And life will lay you low, oh of that I'm sure
                 E                  F#m
But just say the word baby and I'm yours
          A                              F#m
I'll be shelter, keep you safe and warm
         E               B               F#m
And I know it's hard to trust me baby
        E                 B      F#m
That I won't do you wrong no
                  E               B            F#m
And even when the source of light comes raging
                   E               B
You won't have to look too far
 
I'll be your shelter
               E                       F#m
Yes I know, I know you've been hurt before
                      C#m                 A
And life will lay you low, oh of that I'm sure
                 E                  F#m
But just say the word baby and I'm yours
         A
I'll be shelter-
     B
I'll be-
     C#m
I'll be-
     F#m
I'll be-
     A
I'll be
     B         E
I'll be your shelter
