       F#m                     E          Bm      D
It's almost like you're not afraid of anything I do
           F#m C#m E  Bm
How I want you    here
F#m                     E             Bm
You don't know what it's like to be around you
           F#m C#m  E  Bm
I still got my     fear

                     F#m                    E
It's the way you say yes when I ask you to marry me
                Bm
You don't know what you are doing
         D                     F#m
Do you think you can carry me over the threshold
C#m             E             Bm
Over and over again into oblivion?
                          F#m                   E
It's the way that you're gonna stop needing to tell
me
                Bm
You want me as much as I want you to
                      F#m
Tell me I'm over the threshold
               C#m               E            Bm
Everything is gonna be totally okay into oblivion

Chorus:
C#m D F#m A E
I still got my
C#m D A
     Fear
C#m D F#m A E
I still got my
C#m D A
     Fear

It's still always you every morning
I think of no matter what
How I want you here
I know I am easy to find but you know it's never me
I still got my fear

It's like a tide in the city lifts me and
carries me around
And oh, my mind is made up out of nothing now
If nothing scares you about me and you,
never put me down
Oh, my mind is made up out of nothing now

                F#m E  Bm  D
You won't walk away, won't you?
                F#m C#m E Bm
You don't walk away, don't you?
                F#m E  Bm  D
You won't walk away, won't you?
                F#m C#m E Bm
You don't walk away, don't you?

Chorus:
            F#m E Bm D
I still got my   fear
            F#m C#m E Bm
I still got my    fear
            F#m E Bm D
I still got my  fear
            F#m C#m E Bm
I still got my    fear
