This song is from the album Piece By Piece(2015), released on Feb 27, 2015.
I loved the production and the execution of this song. The performance by Kelly was exceptional, especially the harmonies. The slow piano and the strings in the background added a realistic layer of emotion and passion in the song that made the song really beautiful. I was, however disappointed with the lyrics. the lyrics felt like it was written in a hurry, just to fill up the spaces.

[INTRO] C
[VERSE]
C                      F
I'm on the tightrope, you've got your reasons
Am                             G
When did it get so hard to breathe?
C                       F
Hide in the spotlight, I'm feelin' so tired
Am                                 G
Your hands are burnt from holdin' me
      C                     F
And maybe you and I will fall in time
     Am
Eventually
 G              Em      F
Maybe we'll both die trying
                     G        Em
But I can't bring myself to leave
F
Cause I've looked

[CHORUS]
      Am             F
And I ain't seen nothin' like you
     C                             Am
The way you light up every room tonight
F     C
So easily
    Am                F
And I have moved mountains, babe
         C              Am      G
Just a stumble and too long a grace
    F                  Fm
And I, I still can't compete

[VERSE]
C                         F
You're on the tightrope, I've got my reasons
Am
How did we get so tangled?
C                          F
You turn, I stay straight, I bend as you break
 Am
We're so messed up but I know
      G               Em            F
That you and I will fall in time, eventually
     G               Em      F
Or maybe we'll both die trying

[CHORUS]
      Am             F
And I ain't seen nothin' like you
     C                             Am
The way you light up every room tonight
F     C
So easily
    Am                F
And I have moved mountains, babe
         C              Am      G
Just a stumble and too long a grace
    F                  Fm
And I, I still can't compete

[INSTRUMENTAL] C F Am x2

[BRIDGE]
    G              Em            F
Oh you and I will fall in time eventually
     G              Em      F
Or maybe we'll both die trying

[CHORUS]
      Am             F
And I ain't seen nothin' like you
     C                             Am
The way you light up every room tonight
F     C
So easily
    Am                F
And I have moved mountains, babe
         C              Am      G
Just a stumble and too long a grace
    F                  Fm
And I, I still can't compete
