Cm    Gm    G#
I had given up
          D#               A#  G  Cm
I didn't know who to trust ooh
   Gm   D#       G#
So I designed a shell
             D#              A#     G  Cm
Kept me from heaven and hell ooh oooh

And I had hit a low
Was all I let myself know
Yeah I had locked my heart
I was imprisoned by dark
(I was imprisoned by dark)

Chorus:
    Cm                    Gm D# G#
You found me dressed in black
              D#
Hiding way up at the back
          A#              G        Cm
Life had broken my heart into pieces
    Gm      D#      G#
You took my hand in yours
                     D#
You started breaking down my walls
         A#             G        Cm
And you covered my heart in kisses
   Gm          D#        G#
I thought life passed me by
                  D#
Missed my tears, ignored my cries
          A#            G          Cm
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
     Gm       D#         G#
And then you crossed my path
                          D#
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
          A#              G        Cm
Then you covered my heart in kisses

I was down for the count
I was down I was out
And I had lost it all
Yes I was scared, I was torn
And I took to the night
I'd given in to the fight
And I slipped further down
I felt like I had drowned

Chorus

Fm     D#
I was hopeless and broken
    Cm                  A#
You opened the door for me
Fm          D#                     Cm
 Yeah I was hiding and you let the light in
          A#
And now I see

That you do for the wounded
What they couldn't seem to
You set them free
Like a butterfly kissing a child with
an eye for the minor key

Chorus

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

You covered my heart in kisses
