Lyrics and Music by Josh Farro and Hayley Williams

Intro: Bb | Bb | Fm | Eb  } 2 times

Bb
When I was younger,
               Fm
I saw my daddy cry
                 Eb
And curse at the wind.
   Bb
He broke his own heart,
And I watched as he tried
   Fm      Eb
To reassemble it.

    Bb
And my mama swore that
                    Fm
She would never let herself
   Eb
Forget.
    Bb
And that was the day that I promised
                  Fm
I’d never sing of love
                Eb
If it does not exist.

But darlin’,

Chorus:
     Bb
     You are the only exception.
           Fm          Eb
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Bb
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Fm          Eb
     Well, you are the only exception.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

      Bb
Well, maybe I know somewhere
           Fm
Deep in my soul
                Eb
That love never lasts.
    Bb
And we’ve got to find other ways
            Fm
To make it alone,
                  Eb
Or keep a straight face.

    Bb
And I’ve always lived like this,
          Fm
Keeping a comfortable
Eb
Distance.
    Bb
And up until now
                                  Fm
I had sworn to myself that I’m content
           Eb
With loneliness,

Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Chorus:
           Bb
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Fm          Eb
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Bb
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Fm          Eb
     Well, you are the only exception.

Bridge:
              Cm7
   I’ve got a tight grip on reality,
   But I can’t
       Bb                          F
   Let go of what’s in front of me here.
                 Cm7
   I know you’re leaving
   In the morning when you wake up.
            Bb
   Leave me with some kind of proof
              F       Eb
   It’s not a dream. Ohh.

Chorus:
     Bb
     You are the only exception.
     Fm          Eb
     You are the only exception.
     Bb
     You are the only exception.
           Fm          Eb
     Well, you are the only exception.

     You are the only exception.
     Well, you are the only exception.
     You are the only exception.
     Well, you are the only exception.

    G#        Eb           Bb
And I’m on my way to believing.
        G#        Eb           Bb
Oh, and I’m on my way to believing.
