[Intro] A Em Dmaj7 x2 [Verse 1] A Em Dmaj7 When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind. A Em Dmaj7 He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to re assemble it. A Em Dmaj7 And my mamma swore she that would never let herself forget. A Em And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love if it does not Dmaj7 exist. But darling.. [Chorus] A You are the only exception G D You are the only exception A You are the only exception G D A You are the only exception [Verse 2] Em Dmaj7 Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts. A Em Dmaj7 And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face. A Em Dmaj7 And I've always lived like this keeping a comfortable, distance. A Em Dmaj7 And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness, A 'cause none of it was ever worth the risk.

Bm I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up, A E Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream. D whoa [Chorus] A You are the only exception G D You are the only exception A You are the only exception G D You are the only exception A You are the only exception G D You are the only exception A You are the only exception G D You are the only exception [Outro] G D A And I'm on my way to believing G D A Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
