I close my eyes And I smile, knowing that everything is alright To the core, so close that door Is this happening? My breath is on your hair, I'm unaware That you opened the blinds and let the city in God, you held my hand And we stand Just taking in everything And I knew it from the start So my arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep Here we are On this 18th floor balcony We're both, flying away So we talked about mom's and dad's About family pasts Just getting to know where we came from Our hearts were on display For all to see I can't believe this is happening to me And I raised my hand as if to show you that I was yours That I was so yours for the taking I'm so yours for the taking That's when I felt the wind pick up I grabbed the rail while choking up These words to say and then you kissed me I knew it from the start My arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep Here we are On this 18th floor balcony We're both, flying away And I'll try to sleep To keep you in my dreams 'Til I can bring you home with me I'll try to sleep And when I do I'll keep you in my, dreams I knew it from the start So my arms are open wide And your head is on my stomach And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep So here we are On this 18th floor balcony, yeah I knew it from the start So my arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach No, we're not going to sleep, sleep Here we are On this 18th floor balcony, we're both Flying away
Hi Shawn, thanks for watching! Here are the chords I use, which I’ve tried to match to the original recording: Opening chords (‘I close my eyes… alright’): A, Bm Verse: A, A/F#, D(add9), Bm7 Chorus: D(add9), A, Bm7, Bm7 Bridge: Bm7, A/C#, D, E (x2) Checking out some of your videos now. Amazing work!
Thank you. I actually have a newer channel which is better. You can probably find it by searching my name and "piano cover". It only has a few videos, but they are better. Lol.
Excellent job! I thoroughly enjoyed it. One of my favorite songs.
Thanks Dave!! I really appreciate that! One of my all-time favorites too.
Muy lindo.
¡Muchísimas gracias! Thank you for watching!
This is amazing! This song means so much to me
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate it!!
I close my eyes
And I smile, knowing that everything is alright
To the core, so close that door
Is this happening?
My breath is on your hair, I'm unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand
And we stand
Just taking in everything
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony
We're both, flying away
So we talked about mom's and dad's
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display
For all to see
I can't believe this is happening to me
And I raised my hand as if to show you that I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I'm so yours for the taking
That's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while choking up
These words to say and then you kissed me
I knew it from the start
My arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony
We're both, flying away
And I'll try to sleep
To keep you in my dreams
'Til I can bring you home with me
I'll try to sleep
And when I do I'll keep you in my, dreams
I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
And your head is on my stomach
And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
So here we are
On this 18th floor balcony, yeah
I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
No, we're not going to sleep, sleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony, we're both
Flying away
❤️❤️❤️
Hi 😊 Any chance you could share the tab or sheet music? I'm new to piano and want to learn this song 😅
Can we get tabs?
Could you let me know the left hand chords?
