Dm
When I was very young
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one
Now that I am grown
C
Everything's changed
Dm
I'll never be the same
Because of you

Chorus:
Dm              C     Gm7
Nothing really matters,
love is all we need
Dm            C      Gm7         F      Dm
Ev'rything I give you all comes back to me

Dm
Looking at my life
A#           F     Gm
It's very clear to me
Dm
I lived so selfishly
A#        F    Gm
I was the only one
Dm
I realize
C
That nobody wins
Dm
Something is ending
A#               F   Gm
And something begins

Chorus - x2

Dm
Nothing takes the past away like the future
A#
Nothing makes the darkness go like the light
Gm7
You're shelter from the storm
         A          A#      C
Give me comfort in your arms

Chorus - x2
