VERSE1
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 re-assemble
it
G Dm Cmaj7
And my mama 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

VERSE2
...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 had 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

BRIDGE

G D C
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, whoa

CHORUS

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception
