G C
"Get into the groove boy you've got to prove your love to me."
G C
Played on the radio as we drove down south to see our families.
A D G
You were lying there in the passenger chair sound asleep.
G C
I could recall a time when the evenings were bright and thick with love,
G C
And all the city streets and their lights, they were so mysterious.
A D G
Oh life it was so wonderful it would shine oh like fire.
A D G
How we sat on the backs of our cars and laughed into the morning.
D Em
Oh, I thought you'd come and go.
D Em
I never thought you would stay,
Am D G
And I'm sorry if I tried to push you away.
G C
Oh, the edges they fold and you suddenly find you are buried beneath
G C
A blanket of snow you had no idea was even falling.
A D G
You're sitting on a couch inside your home feeling cold.
G C
Oh and nothing's clear, all your thoughts they have become so hard to find.
G C
With a question mark always slumped at the end of these awkward lines.
A D G
All the simple words we loved to speak are no longer audible.
A D G
And I never thought with you and I this would be possible.
E? G7
I can feel the world coming apart,
F G C
And I need you by my side with your delicate heart.
E? G7
So please don't leave no don't you run.
F G Am D
Don't be frightened by the storm oh so bold and brave.
G
Just let it rain.
D Em
Oh, I thought you'd come and go.
D Em
I never thought you would stay,
Am D G
And I'm sorry if I tried to push you away.
D Em
Yeah, I thought you'd come and go.
D Em
I never thought you would stay,
Am D G
And I'm sorry if I tried to push you away.
