[Verse 1]
D#m A#m
Our love is like a river overflowing over time
C# G#m
Running wild, filled with life
D#m A#m
Our love is complicated, living lies and compromise
C# G#m
Side by side, speaking our minds
B D#m
We both made this bed, we can't fit the whole world into it
C# A#m
Tie our threads into a life that fits
[Chorus]
B F#
If it's gonna make you happy, if it's gonna
C#
set us free
D#m C#
If it's gonna hold us steady, then it's all we
B
need
F#
If it's gonna make you happy, if it's gonna let
C#
us be
D#m C#
If it's gonna hold us steady, then it's what I
B
need
F#
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
C#
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) it's what I want
G#m
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 'cause I want you, I need you
[Verse 2]
D#m
Your voice brought us forever, but with work and
A#m
fame and family
C# G#m
We use our minds to light some fires
D#m G#m
Our choices bound together, saw the world, made
C# G#m
history, we're living free and honestly
B G#m
So we share this bed, rather than lying more in it
C# A#m
Pull the threads, but just don't set fire to this
[Chorus]
B F#
If it's gonna make you happy, if it's gonna
C#
set us free
D#m C#
If it's gonna hold us steady, then it's what we
B
need
F#
If it's gonna make you happy, if it's gonna let
C#
us be
D#m C#
If it's gonna hold us steady, then it's what I
B
need
F#
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
C#
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) it's what I want
G#m
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 'cause I want you, I need you

C#m
Still, the faces come to haunt him (ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh)
E Bm
The ghosts I have to share you with
F#m C#m
(Ah-ah-ah) oh, still to me, they're never walking (ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh)
E Bm
In this garden that we've built, oh
[Chorus]
B F#m
Oh, if it's gonna make you happy, if it's gonna
C#
set us free
D#m C#
If it's gonna hold us steady, then it's what we
B
need
F#
If it's gonna make you happy, if it's gonna let
C#
us be
D#m C#
If it's gonna hold us steady, then it's what I
B
need
F#
No-oh-oh
C#m
Oh-oh, it's what I want
G#m
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 'cause I want you, I need you
