Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Looking for reasons

To believe instead of doubt

 Breathe in instead of out

There's gotta be a reason

Looking for answers

For the poor and the pain

 When they both start to feel the same

There's gotta be a reason

Only one breath at a time she said

All my tears are falling to the floor she Said

Never felt it rain like this before she said

I'll sing these black eye blues into the storm instead

 I'll be waiting for my new eyes to arrive,

 One breath at a time

(same as verse one)

And the kings and queens and little dreams

stuck inside these nightmares

Sometimes, sometimes

And the fairy tales replay,

seems so far away

from where we are tonight,

sometimes

I hear her talking to herself in bed

All my tears are falling to the floor she Said

Never felt it rain like this before she said

I'll sing these black eye blues into the storm instead

 I'll be waiting for my new eyes to arrive,

 One breath at a time

Oh oh oh oh oh one breathe at a time

 Oh oh oh oh oh one breathe at a time

 Oh oh oh oh oh one breathe at a time

 Oh oh oh oh oh and I'm holing on to you

 And I won't let go

 My world is torn in two

 No I won't let go

 You're the only thing that's true

 In this old world of black eyed blues

Disillusions, points of view

When the pain cuts like a knife she said

But I'm not giving up on life she said

(Chorus chords and melody)

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh she said x3

 I'll be waiting for my new eyes to arrive
