C G Am I watch your troubled eyes as you rest F G C And I fall in love with every breath C G Am I wonder if those eyes are really shut F G C And am I the one you're dreaming of? F G Cause underneath the darkness, C there's a light that's G Am trying so hard to be seen F G And I know this cause I noticed C G Am a little bit shining from the seams Chorus: C Dm Am And if this is what it takes G C Dm Am G Then let me be the one to bear the pain C Dm Am Oh, if this is what it takes C Dm C F I'll break down these walls that are in our way G C G Am F G C If this is what it takes You keep on telling me I'm wasting time But to call it wasting time, oh that's a crime And you think it's crazy what I'm tryna do Well baby, I'm a fool for you Cause underneath the darkness There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen And I know this cause I’ve noticed A little bit shining through the seams Chorus: And if this is what it takes then let me be the one to bear the pain If this is what it takes I'll break down these walls that are in our way F Cause if you don't understand yet G Then I'll never let you forget Am C That you don't have to do this on your own I'll be your shoulder to lean on I'll be your right when you feel wrong So come on, take my hand, we're moving on Chorus: And if this is what it takes then let me be the one to bear the pain If this is what it takes I'll break down these walls, these walls that are in our way If this is what it takes | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  C  Dm  E  F  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
