It is a soundtrack from a movie Reach For me. This is the first song I tried
to tab, so it's not perfect and there can be mistakes. I'm not a native
English speaker so don't judge me :) Any suggestions- email me. Have fun.

Not sure if the chord shapes are right :)
Am    [x02210]
C7    [x32030]
G     [320030]
Dsus4 [xx0230]

You don’t know me, but you could save my life tonight
I’ve come to see now, and I will never win this fight
Just one more lonely man, running from the shadows in his head..mmmm…
One more desperate soul looking for redemption in your bed.

Chorus: (Struming)

Take my hand and walk me slowly to your door
Can you make me believe being something that just ain’t there\
Make this man believe that…. this is something more
Aint no one night stand, in a cheap hotel, in a middle of nowhere
Lay me down and drown me softly in your bed
Can you make me whole can you make me heal can you make me feel again

(arpeggio)
And give this stranger one last change to wash away the dead

I left him sleeping on the front seat of my pickup truck
I took my shootgun and I heading to the wood to track a buck
He was my little man just two weeks sharp to turning three
He woke up all alone and set out through the snow to look for me

Take my hand and walk me slowly to your door
Can you make me believe being something just ain’t there
Make this man believe that…. this is something more
Aint no one night stand, in a cheap hotel, in a middle of nowhere
Lay me down and drown me softly in your bed
Can you make me whole can you make me heal can you make me feel again

And give this stranger one last change to wash away the dead

I called the cops and they came screaming down from Gilroy
We spent that day and all that night searching for my boy
And when the morning come I knew my son had fell for lords embrace
We found him covered up with snow teardrops frozen on his face


Take my hand and walk me slowly to your door
Can you make me believe being something just ain’t there\
Make this man believe that…. this is something more
Aint no one night stand in a cheap hotel in a middle of nowhere
Lay me down and drown me softly in your bed
Can you make me whole can you make me heal can you make me feel again

And give this stranger one last change to wash away the dead

You don’t know me but you could save my life tonight
It’s been a year now and I have lost my will to fight
He’s always with me no matter how hard and long I run
No there ain’t no running from the love between a father and his son
No there ain’t no running from the love between a father and his son
