Verse 1
  E5                        G5 
I see you there, don't know where you come from
C5           A5
Unaware but still from someone
E5              G5           C5         A5
Don't appear to care that I saw you and I want you
E5                        G5 
What's your name? Cause I have to know it
    C5             A5
You let me in and begin to show it
      E5                    G5               C5  
We're terrified cause we're headed straight for it
      A5 
Might get it

E5                   G5
Hear the song playin on the background
C5                    A5
All alone but you're turnin up now
    E5          G5         C5       A5
And everyone is risin to meet ya, to greet you
E5                     G5 
Turn around and you're walking toward me
    C5                        A5
I'm breakin' down and you're breathing slowly
E5               G5          C5         A5 
Say the word and I will be your man, your man

Chorus
    C5   G5
Say wh--en
       A5       E5        C5       G5 E5       D5   
And my own two hands will comfort you tonight, tonight
    C5   G5    
Say wh--en
       A5      E5        C5     G5 E5       D5   
And my own two arms will carry you tonight, tonight


Verse 2
E5                  G5
Come close and then even closer
   C5                  A5
We bring it in but we go no further
      E5           G5         C5          A5   
We're separate two ghosts in one mirror, no nearer
E5             G5
Later on if it turns to chaos
C5               A5 
Hurricane comin all around us
E5                     G5         C5 
See the crack, pull it back from the window
         A5
You stay low

Chorus
    C5   G5
Say wh--en
       A5       E5        C5       G5 E5       D5   
And my own two hands will comfort you tonight, tonight
    C5   G5    
Say wh--en
       A5      E5        C5     G5 E5       D5   
And my own two arms will carry you tonight, tonight

   E5                         G5
Come across you're lost and broken
  C5                                A5
You're coming to, but you're slow and waking
E5                     G5                       C5                  A5
You Start to shake, you still haven't spoken, what happened
E5                                             G5
They're comin back and you just don't know it
C5                                      A5
and you wanna cry but there's nothing coming
E5                                   G5
They're gonna push until you give in
C5    A5
Say when

E5                    G5
Now we're here and it turns to chaos
C5               A5 
Hurricane comin all around us
E5                             G5         C5 
They're gonna crack, don't you back from the window
         A5
You stay low
E5                G5
It all began with the man and country
C5                A5
Every plan turns another century 
E5               G5         C5   A5 
Around again and another nation fallen

E5            G5            C5        
Maybe god can be on both sides of the gun
      A5 
never understood why 
E5               G5     C5       A5
some of us never get it so good,so good
E5               G5
Some of this was here before us
C5                   A5
All of this will go after us
E5               G5       C5        A5  
It Never stops until we give in, give in


Chorus
    C5   G5
Say wh--en
       A5       E5        C5       G5 E5       D5   
And my own two hands will comfort you tonight, tonight
    C5   G5    
Say wh--en
       A5      E5        C5     G5 E5       D5   
And my own two arms will carry you tonight, tonight
