Chords

Transcribed by DWdrummer67 This is great tune tune that transcribed prior to the release of Chris's album. It's in a different key than Chris uses on the album, which is why it sounds different. I actually like it better, but if you don't... please look elsewhere for the album version. I hope that you enjoy this, but please don't give it a low star rating just because it's not in the key that's on the album. BTW... the final G, D and Em notes in the song are notes, not chords. Tuning: Standard [Intro] Em G D E7 Cadd9 [Verse 1]
Em                         G     D                            Cadd9
Street lights along the highway, throwin’ shadows through the dark

Em                         G      D                  Cadd9
And the memories keep on turnin’, to the rhythm of a broken heart
[Chorus]
Em                                G
You only need a roof when it’s raining…

      D                        Cadd9
you only need a fire when it’s cold

Em                                G
You only need a drink when the whiskey…

        D                               Cadd9
is the only thing that you have left to hold

Em                 G
Sun comes up and goes back down…

       D                               Cadd9
the fallin’ feels like flyin’ ‘till you hit the ground

Em                         G           D
Say the word and I’ll be there for you…

                          Em G D Cadd9
baby I will be your parachute

      Em G   D  Cadd9

[Verse 2]
Em                       G     D                        Cadd9
There’s a song that I remember… that I never learned to play

Em                    G           D              Cadd9
And a lifetime of forgotten words… I never got to say
[Chorus 2]
Em                                G
You only need a roof when it’s raining…

      D                        Cadd9
you only need a fire when it’s cold

Em                                G
You only need a drink when the whiskey…

        D                               Cadd9
is the only thing that you have left to hold

Em                 G
Sun comes up and goes back down…

       D                               Cadd9
the fallin’ feels like flyin’ ‘till you hit the ground

Em                         G           D
Say the word and I’ll be there for you…

                          Em G D
