[Intro]
C Em Am G F
[Verse 1]
C Em Am G F
Do you remember the look on my face as I walked through the door?
C Em Am G F
You said your parents are gone from the states, we were here all alone
Am Em C F
So we rolled up in the kitchen with the radio on
C Em Am G F
Playing Clapton as we put paper towels on the fire alarm
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am F C
And all at once you started breaking down, down, down
G Am F*
Crying, saying, "Please, don't leave me now"
[Chorus]
F C G Am
I know that you're so afraid
F C G Am F
And it's getting late, but I'll stay 'til you come down
C G Am
So close, but you're miles away
F C G*
It'll be okay, 'cause I stay 'til you come down
[Instrumental]
C Em Am G F
[Verse 2]
C Em Am G F
I watched, as the light left the room, I started talking you down
C Em Am G F
Just breathe for a moment or two, we can figure this out
Am Em C F
But you said you needed silence, so I don't make a sound
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am F C
And all at once you started breaking down, down, down
G Am F*
Crying, saying, "Please, don't leave me now"
[Chorus]
F C G Am
I know that you're so afraid
F C G Am F
And it's getting late, but I'll stay 'til you come down
C G Am
So close, but you're miles away
F C G Am
It'll be okay, 'cause I stay 'til you come down
[Post-Chorus]
F C G Am F
And I know it feels like it never ends
C G Am F
And I know the fear that you're up against
C G Am
And I know that you're so afraid
F C G Am F C
And it's getting late, but I'll stay 'til you come down
[Bridge]
G Am F C
And I've been here before
G Am F C
Too high and so unsure
G Am F C G Am
To worry anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
G* Am* F* C*
And all at once you started breaking down, down, down
G* Am* F*
Crying, saying, "Please, don't leave me now"
[Chorus]
F C G Am
I know that you're so afraid
F C G Am F
And it's getting late, but I'll stay 'til you come down
C G Am
So close, but you're miles away
F C G Am
It'll be okay, 'cause I stay 'til you come down
[Post-Chorus]
F C G Am F
And I know it feels like it never ends
C G Am F
And I know the fear that you're up against
C G Am
And I know that you're so afraid
F C G Am
And it's getting late, but I'll stay 'til you come down
[Outro]
F* C* G* Am*
I know that you're so afraid
F* C* G*
And it's getting late, but I'll stay 'til you come down
