G Dm Cmaj7
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind.
G Dm Cmaj7
He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to reassemble it.
G Dm Cmaj7
And my momma swore that she would never let herself forget.
G Dm
And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love
Cmaj7
if it does not exist, but darling
[Chorus]
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7
You are the only exception.
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7 G
You are the only exception.
[Verse]
Dm Cmaj7
Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts.
G Dm Cmaj7
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone. Or keep a straight face.
G Dm Cmaj7
And I've always lived like this keeping a comfortable distance.
G Dm Cmaj7
And up until now I've sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.
[Chorus]
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7
You are the only exception.
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7 Am
You are the only exception.

I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't
G D
let go of what's in front of me here.
Am
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up.
G D C
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream.
[Chorus]
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7
You are the only exception.
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7
You are the only exception.
[Chorus]
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7
You are the only exception.
G
You are the only exception.
Dm Cmaj7
You are the only exception.
