As recorded by Sam Fender & Elton John (2025 release) [Intro] Cmaj7 G D Am7 Cmaj7 Em7 D Cmaj7 G D Am7 Cmaj7 Em7 D [Verse 1]
        Cmaj7
When my face has all changed from the cruelty of age

           G        D
I’ll still miss you

     Cmaj7                                       Em7
In a dream, you forgave me and I almost did it myself

       D
Till I woke back up

    Cmaj7
I'm always procrastinating

                                      G              D
Evading the job of going through them boxes in the attic

           Cmaj7
As long as they're in the dark

                                  Em7  D
There's a flickering spark we'd repair
[Chorus]
           Cmaj7
Just wanna talk to you

      G                 D
Wanna talk with my best friend

          Am7                     C
Wanna let go of everything that I carry

      Em7                      D
Wanna shoulder some of yours instead

        C
I wanna hurt with you

          G                 D
Hurt with somebody who understands

         Am7                      C
Have the strength to truly like myself

             Em7                    D
And have the love to take someone's hand
[Verse 2]
      Cmaj7
I was down in the Low Lights

                                 G     D
Getting hounded by moths and dickheads

           Cmaj7
Your uncle came in

                           Em7  D
I geared up for one on the nose

          Cmaj7
He was sombre and kind

Cmaj7
As I self-flagellated and grovelled

G
Told me to come back

      D
But I cheated, and it's over

Cmaj7
Shrinks somehow link it all back to my upbringing

    Em7                           D
But I don't want an excuse for my mess
[Chorus]
             Cmaj7
I just wanna talk to you

      G                 D
Wanna talk with my best friend

          Am7                     C
Wanna let go of everything that I carry

      Em7                      D
Wanna shoulder some of yours instead

        C
I wanna hurt with you

          G                 D
Hurt with somebody who understands

         Am7                      C
Have the strength to truly like myself

             Em7                    D
And have the love to take someone's hand
[Post-Chorus]
        Cmaj7
I wanna talk to you

        G           D  Cmaj7
I wanna talk to you

                 Em7         D
Oh, I just wanna talk to you

           Cmaj7
Only wanna talk to you

           G           D
Only wanna talk to you

           Am7                     Cmaj7  Em7  D
Only wanna talk to you, talk to you
[Outro]
Cmaj7
Seven years wrapped in youth's great love

G                                D                   Cmaj7
 You picked me up and sucked the cancer from my bones

                                             Em7
Your old man loved me like a son he never had

                    D
And I ate him outta house and home

Cmaj7
I had luck and I will never stop learning

G                   D
 My failures are my prized possessions

  Am7                       Cmaj7
I don't deserve to talk to you

        Em7                        D
Well, I hope that I can root for you

               Cmaj7
Give 'em hell, darling
[Instrumental Outro] Cmaj7 G D Cmaj7 Em7 D Cmaj7 G D Am7 Cmaj7 Em7 D Cmaj7
