I think that the other version of this song is way too complicated. So here's the same
but way simpler to understand.
Mason plays everything tuned a 1/2 step lower. I have too many x chromosomes so I play
in regular tuning with a capo on the third fret. Do what works for you.
Mason fingerpicks the whole song. But then again, he has a bass and drummer to back him
I tend to strum it out.
C
Got so lost that I went to church
G
Sorry God but you made it worse
C F
Made me sit behind a fence
C F
Haunted by the evidence
C
I guess you don’t want me to think
G
So instead I’ll dream and drink
C F
Got too drunk to drive home
C F
In the cab I grabbed my phone
C
And made a call I might regret
G
To a girl that I just met
C F
Lately things are not okay
C F
I just wanted to hear somebody say
C G
If you need a reason as to why you’re here
Am F
You don’t need to look farther than me
C G
If you need a reason as to why you’re here
Am F
You don’t need to look farther than me
C
Lovely, lovely quiet lake
G
How could this be a mistake
C F
Too dark now to see your face
C F
Your hair is blowing all over the place
C
The moon is caught in a frozen glass
G
I could not let this moment pass
C F
The sun is waiting far away
C F
Until i’ve had a chance to say
C
All that’s missing, all that’s lost
G
Every hope at any cost
C F
Every dream too good to come true
C F
Floods my heart when I’m with you
C G
If you need a reason as to why you’re here
Am F
You don’t need to look farther than me
C G
If you need a reason as to why you’re here
