[Intro] C#m F#m C#m F#m C#m Cm Bm E A [Verse 1]
      A
Every night I read this novel

 G                D            A
About you holding roses in the pouring rain

        E                 G
But the ending's tore up, trying to hail a cab

G                              A
Think no one can read you, but I can
[Pre-Chorus]
        C#m         F#m           C#m    F#m
Well we move into a house down on Cherry Lane

          C#m                  N.C.
And watch the world go by, I'm missing a page
[Chorus]
Bm      G      D       A         G
I wanna be the one who walks you home

              D
Who walks you home tonight

 Bm            G             D          A
Stare into her eyes and then try and explain it

         G                              D
But it's written in a language that was meant to fuck you up

          A         Asus4  A
And I can never get close enough
[Verse 2] N.C. But I lie
      A
But I lie down on her pillow

        G                 D      A
And you feel like you was going away

       E                   G
Going away when you got no place to go but

G                D
Back in her arms lying on her pillow
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m              F#m          C#m    F#m
Curled up with a book down on Cherry Lane

    C#m                                N.C.
The glass it hits the floor and you're walking away
[Chorus]
    Bm      G      D       A         G
But I wanna be the one who walks you home

              D
Who walks you home anyway

 Bm            G             D          A
Stare into her eyes and then try and explain it

G                   D
Try and explain it away

Bm      G      D       A         G
I wanna be the one who walks you home

              D
Who walks you home tonight

 Bm            G             D          A
Stare into her eyes and then try and explain it

G                            D
Try and explain it, but that shit just fucks you up

          A         Asus4  A
And I can never get close enough
