[verse1]
C          G           C      G
He's got a thing about losin' control
C            G                Em            D
carries it a mile just to see how far he'll go
C                 G           C               G
He brushes up his chops as he tries to fake a smile
  C             G           A
A friend indeed when I need someone to stay a while
C
Someone to stay a while

[chorus]
F               G            C        G
You can bend my ear, we will talk all day
          Am       Em              D
Just make sure I'm around when you finally got something to say

G        C                  G               C             G
He drops hints but he won't tell you what's really on his mind
      C         G         Em      D
But I know if I look it's easy to find
           C            G        C              G
He's got a way with his anger, a way he lets it show
         C          G              A
Like the smoldering smoke when the fire's left to coals
C
Fire's left to coals.

[chorus]
F               G             C            G
You can take me down, you can show me your home
C                   D                 G               Em
Not the place where you live, but the place where you belong
F               G            C        G
You can bend my ear, we will talk all day
          Am       Em                 D                        C
Just make sure I'm around when you've finally got something to say

[verse3]
          C             G          C              G
Well, his door's always open, he's always got the time
   C             G               Em             D
To give a little something, even though he gets behind
     C            G             C         G
Your trips become his, and your lives are entwined
             C              G            A
But like the horse with the junkie, it's all in your mind
C
All in your mind.

Not the place where you live, but the place where you belong
F               G            C        G
You can bend my ear, we will talk all day
          Am       Em                 D                        C

Finally got something to say

C G Am G C D G
