(play intro over these chords) F Am Dm Bb , repeat
F Bb
If I could write you a song
F Bb
With all the right words
F C
Then would these black clouds begin to burn up
Bb
The moment you heard?
F Bb
If I could make you a map,
F Bb
Would you find your way home?
F C
You know you can't keep me alive
Bb
Leave me alone.
Chorus:
F
Tell me I'm yours.
Am
Tell me you're mine.
Dm Bb
Tell me I'm anything but fine.
F
Tell me a story.
Am
Tell me the time.
Dm Bb
Tell me a lie.
F Bb
If I could make you a tape
F Bb
With all the right noise,
F C
Would you smile when you listen and sigh
Bb
Boys will be boys?
F Bb
If I could paint you a picture,
F Bb
I'd turn black into white.
F C
By now I'm not lookin' for love,
Bb
Just lookin' for tonight.
So ...Chorus
And ...Chorus
And...Chorus
F Am
You said that words can only get you so far,
Dm Bb
But I've got sentences that cover up all my scars.
F Am
In the end I might forget where they are,
Dm Bb
Talk to me tonight.
F Am
And if we started all over today,
Dm Bb
I think we know that we'd end up in the same place.
F Am
Maybe you're right and we've got nothing to say,
Dm Bb
I want to hear it anyway.
I want to hear it anyway.
