Fingerstyle:
G Em
Well, I… I don’t need a reason to be here
C
I’ve tried so hard again and again to make it clear
G
And I ain’t got the time
And you… you dream that you’re still running, but you’re scared
You’ll miss your destination… anywhere
But you try to rest your eyes
Strummed:
D Am
You’re sitting right here beside me
Sometimes we don’t know why
Waiting for the movement
To wake us up inside
G C
But please, babe, don’t stop
D
We’ll go everywhere we need
(Fingerstyle)
G
Take me by the hand
C
I wanna be your man
G
I wanna be your man
Help me understand
I’m doing all I can
I’m doing what I can
(Strummed)
Em C G
You get so stuck on my mistakes
I see them written right there on your face
Thinking that our love might be a waste
Wanting me to turn back in disgrace
F C G
I wouldn’t want to turn back now
I wouldn’t want to turn back now
I don’t see the reasons that you’re stuck outside my life
I wouldn’t want to turn back now
C D G
I wouldn’t want to be the one to tell you
why you were wrong
I wouldn’t want to try to be cool
when I’d rather be strong
This is nothing but a test
to keep you from harm
Don’t be alarmed
I wouldn’t want to be the one to tell you
why you were wrong
I wouldn’t want to try to be cool
when I’d rather be strong
I say these words just to concentrate
the pain
Let it fall away
Let it fall away
I say these words just to concentrate the pain
Let it fall away
