Fortune up and left me on the hotel floor
D F
Well you know she never paid me no mind
D C Bb A G
I was lying in the corner making eyes at the door
They say it's good to start the story with a tragedy

The day I finally met you like I knew I would
D F
You raised me from the wreck of my doubt
D C Bb A G
You were smiling to yourself as if we both understood
The silent language of the anguish of a heart that sings but doesn't make a sound
[Chorus]
Bb F
What did I do to deserve you?
D
How did you find me?
F A7
I was already halfway gone
Bb
You were a bright light
F A7
You were a fistfight, oh

[Verse]
D F
Nobody told me all the patience it takes
D F
For the sky to open up around me
D C Bb A G
They said love is grabbing blindly at a pit full of snakes
And wait to feel the only heel among the rows of all the venomous teeth
[Chorus]
Bb F
What did I do to deserve you?
D
How did you find me?
F A7
I was already halfway gone
Bb
You were a bright light
F A7
You were a fistfight, oh
[Bridge]
Bb F
Our love is older than the great wall
Dm7 F A7
Our love spins a gun around its finger
Bb F
Our love has found its way into our mouths before
Dm F A7
Cut our teeth until we swallow it whole
Bb F G7
Our love hums low beneath the floorboards
Dm F A7
Our love grows flowers in the winter
Bb F
Our love has found its way onto our tongues before
Dm F7M
There is more so take a bite and let it linger
[Chorus x2]
Bb F
What did I do to deserve you?
