The Only Exception Chords by Paramore

Intro

G G Dm Cmaj7 x2

Verse 1

GWhen I was younger, I saw

My daddy Dmcry and curse at the Cmaj7wind

He Gbroke his own heart and I watched

As he tried to DmreassembleCmaj7 it

And Gmy mama swore that she would

Never let Dmherself foCmaj7rget

And Gthat was the day that I promised

I’d never sing of Dmlove if it does not eCmaj7xist but darling

Chorus

GYou are the only exception

DmYou are the Cmaj7only exception

GYou are the only exception

DmYou are the Cmaj7only exception G

Verse 2

GMaybe I know somewhere

Deep in my Dmsoul that love never Cmaj7lasts

And Gwe’ve got to find other ways

To make it alDmone or keep a straight Cmaj7face

And GI’ve always lived like this

Keeping a comDmfortable Cmaj7distance

And Gup until now, I had sworn

To myself that I’m conDtent with lonelCmaj7iness

Because none of it was ever worth the risk
