[Verse 1]
E
Smiling all along but I was fakin'
F#m
Each and every second I was breakin'
D                                                    A
I said that I was numb but I was achin' in my bones
E
The panic in my heart is hard to breathe through
F#m
This the kinda thing they never teach you
D                                                   A
I never thought I'd ever have to leave you, on your own
 
 
[Chorus]
           E
Baby, take care of your heart
               F#m
Every day that I'm not with you
                D
If you're ever scared of the dark
          A
Remember, I told you
                E
Darling, I will never be far
                F#m
Wherever you go what you do
             D
Baby, I was there from the start
          A
Remember, I told you
 
 
[Verse 2]
E
Honestly it hurts too much to say this
   F#m
So I will write it down and you can save it
     D                                        A
And read it when I'm not around to say it for myself, yeah
E
Savor every moment 'cause they go fast
    F#m
The fireworks are bright because they don't last
    D                                                  A
But promise me you'll walk along your own path, no one else's
 
 
[Chorus]
           E
Baby, take care of your heart
               F#m
Every day that I'm not with you
                D
If you're ever scared of the dark
          A
Remember, I told you
                E
Darling, I will never be far
                F#m
Wherever you go what you do
             D
Baby, I was there from the start
          A
Remember, I told you
 
 
[Bridge]
         Bm
When you bump your head
             F#m
And then you lose your thread
         D
Darlin', I'll be there
          A
Remember, I told you
               Bm
From when it's all child's play
         F#m
To your wedding day
              D
Even when the pictures fade
          A
Remember, I told you
 
 
[Chorus]
           E
Baby, take care of your heart
               F#m
Every day that I'm not with you
                D
If you're ever scared of the dark
          A
Remember, I told you
                E
Darling, I will never be far
                F#m
Wherever you go what you do
             D
Baby, I was there from the start
          A
Remember, I told you
 
            E
Baby, take care of your heart
               F#m
Every day that I'm not with you
               D
If you're ever scared of the dark
          A
Remember, I told you
                 E
Darling, I will never be far
                F#m
Wherever you go what you do
            D
Baby, I was there from the start
          A
Remember, I told you
