(play intro over these chords) F Am Dm Bb , repeat
If I could write you a song
With all the right words
Then would these black clouds begin to burn up
The moment you heard?
If I could make you a map,
Would you find your way home?
You know you can t keep me alive
Leave me alone.
Chorus:
Tell me I m yours.
Tell me you re mine.
Tell me I m anything but fine.
Tell me a story.
Tell me the time.
Tell me a lie.
If I could make you a tape
With all the right noise,
Would you smile when you listen and sigh
Boys will be boys?
If I could paint you a picture,
I d turn black into white.
By now I m not lookin for love,
Just lookin for tonight.
So ...Chorus
And ...Chorus
And...Chorus
You said that words can only get you so far,
But I ve got sentences that cover up all my scars.
In the end I might forget where they are,
Talk to me tonight.
And if we started all over today,
I think we know that we d end up in the same place.
Maybe you re right and we ve got nothing to say,
I want to hear it anyway.
I want to hear it anyway.
