 VERSE 1:
E         B   C#m      Abm      A    B     E
  With a foot out the door, and one in my way
          B  C#m    Abm        A    B      E
  You're leaving me home for another work day
       B  C#m    Abm             A     B     E
  I'd follow you out, but you'd keep me in, so
       B   C#m      Abm           A           B
  I'm watching you leave with my nose on the window



VERSE 2:
E              B C#m     Abm    A  B
  I could just sleep all day
            E        B C#m     Abm        A    B
  Just to stay up at night and keep you awake
E            B C#m    Abm    A  B
  If I could speak my mind
          E       B C#m    Abm        A  B
  I'd go out on a limb and say with a sigh



 PRE-CHORUS 1:
C?           C#m *
  I'm the only one
       D                             F#
  Who sees you when you think you're by yourself



  CHORUS 1:
                      E     B  C#m    
  If I'm too much to carry
Abm     A    B      E      B  C#m    
  Just put me down gently
Abm       A   B       E     B  C#m    
  If I'm too much to carry
Abm     A    B      E      B  C#m   Abm   A  B
  Just put me down gently



 VERSE 3:
E       B   C#m     Abm        A  B        E
  I've been your pillow for an after-work nap
       B   C#m   Abm        A   B       E
  And how many shrinks curl up in your lap?
    B     C#m      Abm     A    B
  Friends come and go but I'm still here



 PRE-CHORUS 2:
   F#
  Have you forgotten me?
                  Ab
  My curiosity's killing me

 (Eight left to go...)



  CHORUS 2:
                      E     B  C#m    
  If I'm too much to carry
Abm     A    B      E      B  C#m    
  Just put me down gently
Abm       A   B       E     B  C#m    
  If I'm too much to carry
Abm     A    B      E      B  C#m   Abm   G  Bb  C#m
  Just put me down gently



 BRIDGE:
         Eb7     Abm
  Don't worry at all for me
      E?7 Eb7 Ab
  I've always landed on my feet
     Ab7                       C#m   B     F#
  So if you're gone, at least leave the TV on
  A   F#
  Re-runs

  Just to stay up at night and keep you awake
E            B C#m    Abm    A  B
  If I could speak my mind
          E       B C#m    Abm        A  B
  I'd go out on a limb and say with a sigh
