         Bm
I can pretend that I dont see you,
          A                                       Bm
I can pretend I dont wanna hold you when you're around,
               A
(When you're around)
       Bm
I can say that nothing was right,
         A                                      Bm
But we know if I looked in your eyes I'd break down,
                   G
(yeah, lets break down)

Chorus:
      D                                     A
If I could, for just one night, to be with you,
to make it right,
             Em
And what we were, and what we are,
    G
Is hidden on the, in the scars,
      D
If I could, take you there,
            A/C#
I wont let go, this I swear,
                  Em
You wont have to wonder what we are,
                C               G
Cause you wont have to look to far,
             Bm                       A
Its in the scars, Its hidden in the scars,

If I told you that I love you
But I'm doin' alright without you, it'd be a lie
But I could try
I'd run a thousand miles, believing
You're the only one I want to free me to break down
Yeah, let's break down

Chorus:
If I could have just one night to be with you
To make it right
To what we were and what we are is hidden in the scars
If I could take you there
I won’t let go of this, I swear
You won't have to wonder what we are
'Cause you won't have to ever look too far;
it's in the scars (Oh-oh)

           D/F#             G
Yeah, I'll tell you all my secrets
        Bm                A
All the ones I've kept inside
          D/F#             G
And I'll give you all the reasons
          D             A
that you faded from my life
         D/F#              G
I won't let you go, baby, come here close
         D             A
I won't let you walk away

Chorus:
If I could have just one night to be with you
To make it right
To what we were and what we are is hidden in the scars
If I could take you there
I won’t let go of this, I swear
You won't have to wonder what we are
'Cause you won't have to ever look too far;
it's in the scars
It's hidden in the scars

Hidden in the scars
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I can pretend that I don't see you
And I can pretend
I don't wanna hold you when you're around
