Sorry for the weird chord placements, I didn't have time to correct them; if you 
are familiar with the song or play along with it you'll figure out where they belong.

These are my first ever chords, and I think they're fairly accurate. Enjoy!

* = one strum

  Am
I wait, on the Emerald Isle
    F			   C
For you to come and rescue me
           Dm
From every step I can't take
F
Feet don't you ever break
Am		  G
Drag me over that line

    Am
Halfway, around the medicine ball    
   F			 C
Is far enough to blow me back
		   Dm
Like you broke the bank on the ticket
      F
Worth every damn nickel
	 Am	      G
Well you got me, that time

			F		 C
'Cause I've been on the road one day too long
	       F		      C
Can't hear the record for another sad song
		  F		     C
Look at all these faces can't all be wrong
		   G
That's a lot of my heart out there

	Am
Did you fly, a million miles
    F			    C
For every single one that I ran
	     Dm
I don't know which of us is crazier
F
Oh sweet baby
	   Am		G
That's the madness, I desire

	      Am
And there's a twinkle, in the clifted sky
     F		   C
Been there forever
	       Dm
And lights the way for the waters
    F
The jackals and the lovers
	Am	      G
And the broken street lights

			F		 C
'Cause I've been on the road one day too long
	       F		      C
Can't hear the record for another sad song
		  F		     C
Look at all these faces can't all be wrong
		   G
That's a lot of my heart out there

              F		  	          C
So do we keep running through the motions baby
	     F			   C
Knowing that someday is gonna come maybe
                    F			   C
When you can't keep your pretty mouth from saying
           G
I wanna go home

Am   F    C    Dm    F    Am    G (x2)

  Am*			        F*		       C*
I wait, on the emerald isle for you to come and rescue me
