Dermot Kennedy - Innocence And Sadness

[Intro]
B B G#m G#m

[Verse 1]
B
Never felt alone till the late night
B
Never knew she was my home till the tears dried
G#m
Workin’ on the karma, but it takes time
G#m
Innocence and sadness was a fine line
E
Better savour every moment as it flies by
G#m F#
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
Maybe someday you’ll be happy for me, oh, I
G#m F#
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy

[Pre-Chorus]
E
The reason I stay
G#m F#
Wеll, I need you today
E
Baby, I would bleed in your name
G#m F#
I’m tryin’ to be who you need me to bе

[Chorus]
E
I woulda waited for you all night to talk for a minute
G#m F#
I’ll sing into the cold dark night till you listen
E
People spend their life heads down, souls hidden
G#m F#
I’m tryin’ to be who you need me to be, well

[Instrumental]
B B G#m G#m

[Verse 2]
B
Never felt alone till the late night
B
Never knew she was my home till the king cried
G#m
Lost inside the forest, but it feels fine
G#m
Innocence and sadness in the same night
E
All the love that just got stolen from your wide eyes
G#m F#
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
Let your tears erode my shoulder like a cliff side
G#m F#
Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy

[Pre-Chorus]
E
The reason I stay
G#m F#
Wеll, I need you today
E
Baby, I would bleed in your name
G#m F#
I’m tryin’ to be who you need me to bе

[Chorus]
E
I woulda waited for you all night to talk for a minute
G#m F#
I’ll sing into the cold dark night, you listen
E
Some people spend their life heads down, souls hidden
G#m F#
I’m tryin’ to be who you need me to be

[Instrumental]
G#m F# E
(4x)

[Bridge]
G#m F# E
I’d do anything for smiles, I’d move Heaven and Earth
G#m F# E
Nobody told me at the start how heaven can hurt
G#m F# E
I’ll be waitin’ under streetlight at Bowery and 3rd
G#m F# E
Know I was waitin’ on ya, know I was waitin’ on ya
G#m F# E
Darlin’, don’t spend another second wonderin’ what you’re worth
G#m F# E
Don’t you ever get affected by the ways of this world
G#m F# E
Wouldn’t say my soul’s protected, but there’s somethin’ at work
G#m F# E
I was waitin’ on ya, know I was waitin’ on ya

[Instrumental]
B B G#m G#m F#

[Outro]
E
Better savour every moment as it flies by
G#m F#
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
G#m F#
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy
E
Better savour every moment as it flies by
G#m F#
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
G#m F#
Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy
