Lyrics and Music by Josh Farro and Hayley Williams

Intro: A | A | Em6 | Dmaj  } 2 times

A
When I was younger,
               Em6
I saw my daddy cry
                 Dmaj
And curse at the wind.
   A
He broke his own heart,
And I watched as he tried
   Em6     Dmaj
To reassemble it.

    A
And my mama swore that
                    Em6
She would never let herself
   Dmaj
Forget.
    A
And that was the day that I promised
                  Em6
I’d never sing of love
                Dmaj
If it does not exist.

But darlin’,

Chorus:
     A
     You are the only exception.
           Em6         Dmaj
     Well, you are the only exception.
           A
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Em6         Dmaj
     Well, you are the only exception.

Instrumental: A | A

      A
Well, maybe I know somewhere
           Em6
Deep in my soul
                Dmaj
That love never lasts.
    A
And we’ve got to find other ways
            Em6
To make it alone,
                  Dmaj
Or keep a straight face.

    A
And I’ve always lived like this,
          Em6
Keeping a comfortable
Dmaj
Distance.
    A
And up until now
                                  Em6
I had sworn to myself that I’m content
           Dmaj
With loneliness,

Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Chorus:
           A
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Em6         Dmaj
     Well, you are the only exception.
           A
     Well, you are the only exception.
           Em6         Dmaj
     Well, you are the only exception.

Instrumental: Bm7 | Bm7 | A | E
              Bm7 | Bm7 | A | E

Bridge:
              Bm7
   I’ve got a tight grip on reality,
   But I can’t
       A                           E
   Let go of what’s in front of me here.
                 Bm7
   I know you’re leaving
   In the morning when you wake up.
            A
   Leave me with some kind of proof
              E       Dmaj 
   It’s not a dream. Ohh.

Chorus:
     A
     You are the only exception.
     Em6         Dmaj
     You are the only exception.
     A
     You are the only exception.
           Em6         Dmaj
     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         Dmaj         A
And I’m on my way to believing.
        G         Dmaj         A
Oh, and I’m on my way to believing.
