Intro: G, D, Cadd9 (2x)
 
verse 1 
 
G         D              Cadd9 
I've been sitting at the border of love, 
G            D                   Cadd9 
When dots connect and there's an order above, 
G            D               Cadd9 
And there is no one that can touch me, 
              G          D 
When it's the same thing coming again, 
  Cadd9        D 
I feel I gotta say. 
 
 
          G 
I'm gonna walk, 
        G/F# 
I won't quit, 
        Em7 
Until I get, 
       Cadd9          D 
To the bottom of your heart. 
          G 
I'm gonna walk, 
        G/F# 
I won't quit, 
        Em7 
Until I get, 
       Cadd9          D 
To the bottom of your heart. 
G            D       Cadd9 
Woah-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, 
       D              G          D        Cadd9   
To the bottom of your hea-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-art. 
 
 
verse 2
 
Walking hour after hour, if I could, 
Use a walking superpower, I would, 
Use it just to come and find you, 
Then it's the slow and steady again, 
Never going away. 
 
Chorus 
 
Woah-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, 
To the bottom of your hea-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-art, 
                      G          D       Cadd9       D 
To the bottom of your hea-a-aa-arrrt, aa-arrrt, aa-arrrt. 
 
Bridge
 
Em7       G            Cadd9       D         Em7 
If It's a puzzle I can solve, I'll find a way, 
(Em7)  G       Em7           D    G 
   To find you,   I wouldn't mind to, 
Em7    G           Cadd9     D     Cadd9 
I will muscle my resolve and every day, 
(Cadd9)               G           D 
I'm walking away, I'm never gonna stray. 
 
Chorus (2x)
