Chords

[INTRO:] G Bb Dm Dm C Bb C D [VERSE 1:]
G
Can't remember just how it ended

    Em
I'm hazy as to how it began

G
Crazy how our lives got so tangled

          Em
Now we're simply silent partners again

D                  Em
Secretly walking a tightrope

     D/F#                      G
Come fall into the arms of the past
[PRE CHORUS:]
            C              G
'Cause it's still the same me

  D            Em
Still the same you

    C           G              D
Who swore those promises would still ring true
[CHORUS:]
              G
So, when your heart cries out

                   Bb
In the middle of a sleepless night

                       Dm    Dm C Bb
And you're suddenly so lonely
When seconds count
C
Count on me

D
Count on me
[VERSE 2:]
G
Special moments taken for granted

  Em
A tenderness that found no reward

G
Funny how you'd speak of forever

        Em
Only to wind up restless and bored

    D                        Em
Can sweethearts, so suddenly strangers

  D/F#                   G
Recapture in a moment of fire
[PRE CHORUS:]
           C              G
Well, it's still the same me

  D            Em
Still the same you

    C        G              D
The same two children, deep down it's true
[CHORUS:]
              G
So, when your heart cries out

                   Bb
In the middle of a sleepless night

                            Dm    Dm C Bb
And you're lost and feeling lonely
When seconds count
C
Count on me

Count on me
[CHORUS:]
          G
When your dream dies hard

                    Bb
And you're stranded out on the boulevard

I'll be there in a heartbeat
When seconds count

Count on me

I'm going back in time

To how it used to be
[INSTRUMENTAL:] Dm Bb Dm Bb Dm Bb [BRIDGE:]
           C
Now it's a race with time

       G
'Til I change your mind
[CHORUS:]
          G
When your heart cries out

                   Bb
In the middle of a sleepless night

And you're lost and feeling lonely
When seconds count

You can always count on me
