Em C G D x2
[Verse 1]
Em C G D
We are forever as one in what remains
Em C G D
You're in my blood from the cradle to the grave
Em C
I don't like to think about the pieces
G D C
Or the cracks and the breaks that still remain
D
If I could breathe, I'd ask you
[Chorus]
Em C
To look in my mercy mirror
G D Em
I need you more than I have known
C
So look in my mercy mirror
G D Em
'Cause I'm not ready to let you go
C G
Now I know, now I know
D Em
I'm not ready to let you go
C G
Now I know, now I know
D Em C G
I'm not ready to let you go
D Em C G D
I'm not ready to let you go
[Verse 2]
Em C G D
My heart like a planet the sun forgot
Em C G D
Where now? Orbiting the light that I had lost
Em C
More than words as silence teaches
G D C
How to see and to feel what is real
Dsus4 D
When sunlight rea - ches my soul
[Chorus]
Em C
So look in my mercy mirror
G D Em
I need you more than I have known
C
So look in my mercy mirror
G D Em
'Cause I'm not ready to let you go
C G
Now I know, now I know
D Em
I'm not ready to let you go
C G
Now I know, now I know
D C
I'm not ready to let you go
[Bridge]
D Em
It's a wicked game life plays
G
How it gives and takes away
G
No turning 'round, touching ground
D C
What we had was so much more than I realized
D
If I could, I'd embrace, embrace you
[Chorus]
Em C
And look in my mercy mirror
G D Em
I need you more than I have known
C
So look in my mercy mirror
G D Em
'Cause I'm not ready to let you go
C G
Now I know, now I know
D Em
I'm not ready to let you go
C G
Now I know, now I know
D Em C G D
I'm not ready to let you go
Em C G D
I'm not ready to let you go
