------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Write Me A Song - Edwin McCain ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Jeff Sorensen Email: [email protected]
G Cadd2 Kelly is raising her son G Cadd2 His dad left just after the birth G Cadd2 Now she's living on child support checks Em7 Cadd2 I guess that's all that man was worth
G Cadd2 She said I just need a man who will love me G Cadd2 But they all just want one night of sin G Cadd2 I know our life could be better Em7 Cadd2 D I just don't know where I should begin
Chorus: GD Cadd2 She said write me a song GD/F# Cadd2 One that makes all the girls cry D/F#G And the old women swoon D/F# Cadd2 At the sound of my tune Em7A And the hearts of the lonely will fly Cadd2-DG Yeah, they'll fly
Verse 2:
G Cadd2 Beth, she sings straight from the heart G Cadd2 She's hidden her tracks very well G Cadd2 But these days she's falling apart Em7 Cadd2 And it makes me feel just like hell
G Cadd2 She says, boy, you can't imagine my life G Cadd2 The death and the drugs and the pain G Cadd2 And though I keep running Em7 Cadd2 I just can't seem to break from these chains
Chorus 2:
GD Cadd2 She said write me a song GD/F# Cadd2 Fill it all up with good words D/F#G Like brilliant and heavenly D/F# Cadd2 Make it sound just like me Em7A Just like the first time I love you was heard
(Chorus 1)
Bridge:
AmEm7 We're all feeding our lonely AmEm7 Like it might go away AmEm7 The doors of heaven swing wide DG If we just find the right words to say
(Chorus 2)
(Chorus 1)
GD Cadd2 She said write me a song (Repeat until fade)
