[Verse 1]
D G A D
Well I left you at the bottom of this mountain and I'm stoppin' here and beggin' you to meet me halfway up
D G
If there's ever been a time where there's been too much here to handle, it's right now
A D
I'm telling you "I've had enough"
[Chorus]
A G D
And it's still a long way up to gettin' back to who I was
A G D
And I watched the leaves fall down about ten times and grow back tough
Bm A
Before I found the nerve to say "I just can't climb another way"
G
"I need a shove"
[Verse 2]
D
When you fall, it never hits you 'til you're hurtin'
G A D
And I'm here, and I've broke damn near every bone there is to break
I've picked myself up time enough to know that it won't kill me
G A D
But this time it might be more than I can fake
[Chorus]
A G D
And it's still a long way up to gettin' back to who I was
A G D
And I watched the leaves fall down about ten times and grow back tough
Bm A
Before I found the nerve to say "I just can't climb another way"
G
"I need a shove"
[Verse 3]
D
Well the stars are always shinin'
G A D
It's just sometimes you can't see 'em 'til you pull yourself away from all the lights
In the darkness now I lay here, findin' comfort in the stillness
G A D
Knowin' you've been here beside me this whole time
[Chorus]
A G D
And it's still a long way up to gettin' back to who I was
A G D
And I watched the leaves fall down about ten times and grow back tough
Bm A
Before I found the nerve to say "I just can't climb another way"
G
"I need a shove"
[Chorus]
A G D
And it's still a long way up to gettin' back to who I was
A G D
And I watched the leaves fall down about ten times and grow back tough
Bm A
Before I found the nerve to say "I just can't climb another way"
G
"I need a shove"
I just need a shove
