   F                  A#     F
Breathe some faith into my chest.
 A#             Dm       C
Lay me down, I need the rest.
F                A#         F
Ever since the sky turned grey
      A#             Dm      C
I've waited for the perfect day.
 Gm                      C
Hey now, it seems you've always
 Gm                  C
touched me like the sun.

Chorus:
         A#                 C     F
There's no escape for the broken-hearted,
        A#              C                F
There's no return once you've lost your way.
A#        C                      Dm
I say a prayer now our love's departed
      A#                   C
That you'll come back to stay
               A#
And bring the perfect day.

Blinded by a crazy light
I fell into the darkest night
Those magic ties, the two of us
I couldn't see it turn to dust
Hey now, it seems you've always
reached me like the sun.

Chorus:
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day
