F
Sometimes I lie awake and I wonder how you?re doing
      Bb                         F
It?s been a long time since we spoke
C                              dm
Last time I was there you had music in the air
    gm                       C
We listened till the stereo broke
   F    
I told you I believed you it?s not really true
   Bb                         F
I only want to see you come alive
C                                  dm                                         
Winter?s come and gone and there?s flowers on the lawn
gm                       C
I miss you coming up my drive


::Pre-Chorus::
                am                  Bb
You?d tell me different if I ever lost my way
                am                   Bb
You?d tell me different if I needed somewhere to stay
                gm                             
You?d tell me all the things I needed to hear and never could
            C
And you?d always be careful and kind


::Chorus::
                Bb          C      dm
If you want to know what?s on my mind
        Bb        C               F
Let me be some help to you this time
F   C/E          dm                              am
If you want to wake up in the morning and throw roses in the rain
gm                                  Bb            C
Cry yourself to sleep at night and practice your pain
                Bb          C        dm        
If you want to know what?s on my mind
Bb                                 C                      F

Up here the days last forever it seems
      Bb                    F
The sunlight caresses your face
  C                    dm
You can hear the dogs howling at night
        gm                  C
You?ll think you?re in the holiest place
      F 
I?ve always played it careful now maybe I was wrong
  Bb                           F
I think of you as fragile and young
 C                             dm
I have seen the darkness come over your face
gm                        C
Felt the poison of your tongue

::Pre-Chorus::
                am                  Bb
You?d tell me different if I ever lost my way

You?d tell me different if I needed somewhere to stay
                gm                             
You?d tell me all the things I needed to hear and never could

Lately there?s something disturbing my sleep
   Bb                           F
I dream about you almost every night
       C                                  dm
You?re alone in your place and there?s a look on your face
         gm                       C
I don?t know if it is anger or fright
F       
All that I can tell you is I?m waiting to hear
     Bb                           F
You know that I am faithful to a flaw
  C                                 dm
When you change your mind and you step outside
 gm                        C
Hope I?ll be the one you call

Look over your shoulder I won?t be far behind
Bb                            C            F
Come on up and see me on the banks of the 49
