Ask Me to Stay The United Steel Workers of Montreal Words and music by Shawn 'GUS' Beauchamp Intro: C G Am F x2 C Woke up this morning with a knot in my chest G Washed my face and hands and then I got dressed Am Open the door to another new day F I'm burning inside when we got nothing to say C Walk down the street and get in my car G How many times have we gone this far Am I could turn around and make the pain all go away F C Just pick up that phone, please ask me to stay G Ask me to stay Am Ask me to stay F Ask me to stay Solo 1: C G Am F C I can still feel your breath on the back of my neck G I can still feel your hands on my chest Am Well darling I wish you could see me now F Cold and lonely, I'm nothing but down C I' so tired I'm falling in on closing lids G There ain't enough caffeine in the world to get me going Am But honey it's not too late F C Just turn on your light, call out my name G Call out my name Am Call out my name F Call out my name Solo 2: C G Am F x2 C Baby I'm back, try to look surprised G I know you're angry but at least I never lied Am Feel like I'm going backwards, can't see a damned thing F C Except in the distance the light off your golden wings G Your golden wings Am Your golden wings F Your golden wings C Your golden wings G Your golden wings Am Your golden wings F Your golden wings C G Am F End on C http:\\uswm.ca
