(Note: This is a very basic version of what's on the CD -  
On the CD, there is some nice fingerpicking - nothing that 
is too hard, as fingerpicking goes, it's just a matter 
of learning how to fingerpick...) 
 
Verse 1: 
D                   F#m 
Kiss me baby on the curb 
G                         D 
Throw your arms around my waist 
D                          F#m 
Send me off with your sweet words 
G                                 D 
Say a little prayer, show a little faith 
G               G/F# 
These boots are broken in 
     Em 
From always leaving you 
A 
 This road takes a lot of turns 
 
Each one leads me back to you, but 
 

D          F#m             G 
 If you're here when I get back 
                     D 
Will you open up the door 
D          F#m             G 
 If you're here when I get back 
                        Em 
Will you pull me to the floor 
                      G       A 
Will you kiss me like before? 
                   D          G 
I couldn't ask for more 
                   D          G 
I couldn't ask for more  
 
Verse 2: 

I know you hate to sleep alone 

I feel strangers closing in 

I wanna crawl right through this phone 

And feel the softness of your skin 

I feel so helpless and  

These walls are creeping close 

In this here hotel room 

Tonight I'm sleeping with your ghost, but 
 
Chorus: 

If you're here when I get back 

Will you put my fears to rest? 

If you're here when I get back 

Lay your head upon my chest 

With nothing to confess 

Aw, baby, please say yes 

Aw, baby, please say yes 
 
Interlude: 
D 
(walkdown and back up twice - just listen 

to the song if you need to hear it and play  

essentially the same lick as the intro, except 

don't go to 
G , just stay in D ) 
 

Verse 3: 

If I stay away too long 

And somebody takes my place 

Whenever sad boys sing their songs 

I'll hear your voice, I'll see your face 

And if the morning light we never share 

You know you're there, each and every single prayer, but 
 
Chorus: 

If you're here when I get back 

We'll put all that aside 

If you're here when I get back 

Will you open your arms wide? 

Will you let me come inside? 

I'd be so satisfied 

I'd be so satisfied 
               D        G 
I'd be so satisfied 
               D        G 
I'd be so satisfied
