[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]
[Am][G]

[Verse 1]
The way your [G]fingers
trace a [C]pattern down my [G]spine
The way your eyes dissolve,
then [C]lock up tight with [G]mine
The sweetness of your skin that [C]takes
my love and pulls me [Am]in
And all the memories that begin
And [C]end with you,
then flood back once [D]again[C][G]

[Verse 2]
And the [Am]rest is not a [Em]mys tery
[Am]All things being e[Em]qual
The [Am]best plot is a love [Em]story
[C]And here comes the seque[D]l
And the [Am]rest [C]is history
[G][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]The sound your breathing makes
when [C]you are [G]satisfied
The shape your body takes
when [C]you are by my [G]side
The angle of the light [C]that strokes
us in the afternoon
[G]The[Am] way I hold on tight as if[C]
my life depended on [D]you[C][G]
[D]And

[Verse 4]
[Am]in my way I tr[Em]y to be
[Am]Someone with af[Em]fection
The [Am]future's not a cer[Em]tainty
It's [C]only a [D]direction
And the [Am]rest [C]is histor[G]y

[G]

[Verse 6]
The way your [G]fingers trace a [C]pattern down
my spine (patter down [G]my spine)
The way your eyes dissolve,
then [C]lock up tight with mine (lock up tight [G]with mine)
The angle of the light [C]that strokes
us in the [Am]afternoon
The way I hold on tight as [C]if my

[Verse 7]
[Am]rest is not a [Em]mys tery
[Am]All things are e[Em]qual
The [Am]best plot is a love [Em]story
[C]And here comes the seque[D]l
And [Am]in my way I tr[Em]y to be
[Am]Something of an [Em]equal
The [Am]future's not a cer[Em]tainty
[C]But here comes the seque[D]l

[Verse 8]
And the [Am]rest [C]is his[G]tory, oh yea[D]h
And the [Am]rest [C]is his[G]tory, mmh[D]
And the [Am]rest [C]is history
[G]

[Verse 9]
Mmh, yeah
[C](Baby, [G]baby, [C]baby, baby,
yeah)
(Baby, baby, baby, baby)
The [Am]rest is [C]history[G]
[C](Baby, baby, baby, baby)
The rest is history
