D#                A#/D
I wanna take you with me
Cm                    G#
to life with no more yesterdays
D#                   A#/D
We can start again awake and so excited
Cm                    G#
and change the way we always push
   A#
we always pull

Chorus:
D#                       G#
I'll open up and be your parachute
    Cm         A#       G#   A#
and I'll never let you down
D#                   G#
So open up and be my human angel
    Cm         A#       G#        D#
and we'll only hit the ground running

And when the world gets sharp and
tries to cut you down to size
And makes you feel like giving in
Oh, I will stay, I will rain,
I will wash the words and pain away
And I will chase away the way we push
The way we pull, you're beautiful

Chorus:
D#                       G#
I'll open up and be your parachute
    Cm         A#       G#   A#
and I'll never let you down
D#                   G#
So open up and be my human angel
    Cm         A#       G#        D#
and we'll only hit the ground running
    A#
running

G#                   Fm
And if it feels like we might drop
         D#
it will stop so don't look down
            G#
it wouldn't be the same without you
Fm                            G#
This life is too good to give up on

Chorus:
I'll open up and be your parachute
And I'll never let you down
So open up and be my human angel
And we'll only hit the ground
And we're gonna hit the ground
Running, running
