Em
Could it be I was the one
                             C
That you held so deep in the night?
            Em
On the back staircase
                                          C
You fell to your knees with tears in your eyes

             A
All that you suffered, all the disease
             C
You couldnʼt hide it, hide it from me

           Em
All alone, scared in your room
                               C
Would you swear thereʼs nobody home?
            Em
On the bed, laying awake
                             C
As you prayed heʼd leave you alone

             A                   C
Iʼll let the darkness swallow me whole
          A                     C
I need to find you, need you to know

Em           C             A
Iʼll be your friend in the daylight again
Em            C           A
There we will be, like an old enemy
         C
Like the salt and the sea

Em C

               Em
And they wrote all these prescriptions
                         C
They wrote me off like a heel
              Em
Yeah, the doctors with their medicine
                      C
Left me to rock in my filth

         A                       C
From the destruction, out of the flame
           A                  C
You need a villain, give me a name

Em           C             A
Iʼll be your friend in the daylight again
Em            C           A
There we will be, like an old enemy
Em           C             A
Iʼll be your friend in the daylight again
Em            C           A
There we will be, like an old enemy
         C
Like the salt and the sea
         C
Like the salt and the sea
