[Verse]
Am G C
Sunlight through a broken window pane
F G C
Moves across a worn down hardwood floor
Am G C
Evening brings the thunder and the rain
F G C
Nothing like the calm after the storm
C F C
You are everything I ever wanted
Am G C
And I was more than what you bargained for
C G Am
Forever is the echo of a promise
F G C
Broken by the slamming of a door
[Chorus]
G Am
Stronger than the whiskey, burning higher than the flame
F G
The fire in your touch is like a needle in my veins
G Am
And I might be the death of you but you love me just the same
F G Am
And every chance we have to say goodbye is one more chance to stay

Kiss you once to show you that I want you

Twice to show you I will not let go
C G Am
And when you are lost out in the darkness
F G C
I will be the light that guides you home
[Chorus]
G Am
Stronger than the whiskey, burning higher than the flame
F G
The fire in your touch is like a needle in my veins
G Am
And you might be the death of me but I love you just the same

And every chance we have to say goodbye is one more chance to stay

Sometimes late at night while you are sleeping
Am G C
I watch the moonlight slip across your face

And thank the lord for sending you to keep me
F G C
To catch me should I ever fall from grace
[Chorus]
G Am
Stronger than the whiskey, burning higher than the flame
F G
The fire in your touch is like a needle in my veins
G Am
And I might be the death of you but you love me just the same
