Chorus (no finger-picking just chords)
AmF
You found me dressed in black
C
hiding way up at the back
G
Life had broken my heart into pieces
AmF
You took my hand in yours
C
You started breaking down my walls
G
And you covered my heart in kisses
AmF
I thought life passed me by
C
Missed my tears, ignored my cries
G
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
Am
And then you crossed my path
FC
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
GAm
Then you covered my heart in kisses
Verse (same as first verse)
I was down for the count, I was down
