A#                   F6
I met you in the dark, you lit me up,
Gm7                        D#
You made me feel as though
I was enough,
A#                        F6
We danced the night away,
We drank too much,
Gm7                        D#
I held your hair back when
You were throwing up.

 A#                                    F6
   Then you smiled over your shoulder,
   For a minute, I was stone cold sober,
 Gm7                       D#
   I pulled you closer to my chest,
 A#                               F6
   And you asked me to stay over,
   I said, I already told you
 Gm7                             D#
   I think that you should get some rest.

Chorus:
   A#                        F6
     I knew I loved you then
     But you’d never know,
   Gm7
     ‘Cause I played it cool
               D#
     When I was scared of letting go,
   A#                     F6
     I know I needed you,
     But I never showed,
  Gm7
     But I wanna stay with you
       D#
     Until we’re grey and old.
          A#                 F/A
     Just say you won’t let go,
          Gm7                D#
     Just say you won’t let go.

A#                        F6
I’ll wake you up with some breakfast in bed,
Gm7
I’ll bring you coffee
    D#
With a kiss on your head,
A#                               F6
And I’ll take the kids to school,
Wave them goodbye,
Gm7                          D#
And I’ll thank my lucky stars for that night.

 A#                                    F6
   When you looked over your shoulder,
   For a minute, I forget that I’m older,
 Gm7                      D#
   I wanna dance with you right now, oh,
   A#                                 F6
   And you look as beautiful as ever,
   And I swear that every day you’ll get better.
 Gm7                         D#
   You make me feel this way somehow.

Chorus:
   A#                         F6
     I’m so in love with you,
     And I hope you know,
   Gm7
     Darling, your love is more
          D#
     Than worth its weight in gold,
   A#                           F6
     We’ve come so far my dear,
     Look how we’ve grown,
   Gm7
     And I wanna stay with you
       D#
     Until we’re grey and old.
          A#                 F/A
     Just say you won’t let go,
          Gm7                D#
     Just say you won’t let go.

 A#
   I wanna live with you
 F
   Even when we’re ghosts,
 Gm
   ‘Cause you were always there for me
       D#
   When I needed you most.

Chorus:
   A#                        F6
     I’m gonna love you till
     My lungs give out,
   Gm7
     I promise till death we part
     D#
     Like in our vows,
   A#                              F6
     So I wrote this song for you,
     Now everybody knows
   Gm7
     That it’s just you and me
       D#
     Until we’re grey and old.
          A#                 F/A
     Just say you won’t let go,
          Gm7                D#
     Just say you won’t let go,
          A#                 F/A
     Just say you won’t let go,
              Gm7                D# A#
     Oh, just say you won’t let go.
