Just say yeah – Jackson Browne (CD: Time the conquerer) Intro: |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G | |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G |
G
I wanted to be somebody you see 

Em             D/F# G
When you're feeling good 

C                          G
I started looking for your little MG 

C             G
In my neighborhood 

C                         G
I started feeling kind of funny and free 

C               G
When you were around 

G
And I began to cook up a plan to 

Em         D/F# G
Take you out of town 
|C |G Em |Cma7 D |G | |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G |
G                     
Not really dating, we were relating 

Em     D/F# G
And we were friends 

C                            G
It's hard to say where the relating leaves off 

C                 G
And where loves begins 

C                          G
A friend will tell you all kinds of stuff 

C            G
That a lover won't 

G
And you would think you would see love coming 

Em             D/F# G
But of course, you don't

G
I want to hold you, don't want to mold you 

Em        D/F# G
Into someone   else 

C                  G
I never could have invented you 

C                 G
Or written you so well 

C                   G 
I never met another woman who 

C                         G
Possessed your particular charms 

G          
I want to be that man who will see that 

Em             D/F# G 
You never come to   harm 
|C |G Em |Cma7 D |G | |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G |
G                     
Must have been you I dreamed of 

Em                D/F# G
Yeah that was you all  right 

C                           G
You were the laughter I was listening to 

C               G
Standing in the light 

C                         G
You were the lover in the sunrise who 

    C                 G    
Had begun to slip away 

G                                   Em
Though I was just a kid I must have known 

              D/F#   G
You'd be real some - day 
|C |G Em |Cma7 D |G | |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G | |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G | |C |G Em |Cma7 D |G |
G
I want to know you, I want to show you 

Em              D/F# G 
That you're not a  - lone 

C                          G
You've been the only thing steadyin' me 

C                      G
And I guess we've both known 

C                           G        Em
Maybe you haven't been that ready to see 

C                     G
That I could take you there 

G
Well that was then, but this is when 

Em                 D/F# G
I need to hear you say  yeah 

|C       |G   Em    |Cma7        D  |G       |   play 4x
                       Baby just say yeah
