E
From the moment I met you, everything changed
B
I knew I had to get you, whatever the pain
C#m
I had to take you and make you mine
A
(take you and make you mine)

I would walk through the desert,
I would walk down the aisle
I would swim all the oceans,
just to see you smile
Whatever it takes is fine
Whatever it takes is fine

Chorus:
E
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, so put your hands up
G#m
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, cause it's a stand up
C#m
I won't be leaving till I finish stealing
A
Every piece of your heart,
                     E
Every piece of your heart

I know your heart's been broken,
but don't you give up
I'll be there, yeah I know it,
to fix you with love
It hurts me to think that you've ever cried
(You've ever cried)

Chorus

Oh oh oh oh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause it's a stand up
I won't be leaving 'til I finished stealing
Every piece of your heart

                      C#m
And I will steal us a car
                           B
And we will drive to the stars
                     A
I will give you the moon
It's the least I can do
If you give me the chance

E
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
so put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
'Cause it's a stand up

I won't be leaving 'til I finished stealing
Every piece of your heart
'Cause you stole my heart
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
Call me a thief
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
But you should know your part
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
I'm only here
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
'Cause you stole my heart
