C                           C
  You came from down south,   words in your mouth,

F                              F
  you had your tricks and your needs.

Dm                        Dm
  Bounce up and stronger,   lasted longer,

   G                        G
it came between you and me.

C                           E
  You headed straight down,   nothing to hide now,

Am                         F
  dancin' to your master's tune.

        F                         F
I could see in your eyes you were   ready to die,

        C                      C
tell me what was I supposed to do.

  World in your hands,   so many plans,

F                        F
all of them ahead on the road.

        Dm                           Dm
We were drinking in the parking lot,   singing with the strangers,

    G                 G
too happy to feel the cold.

       C                      E
When I stand on the stage you know you're standing next to me,

Am                        F
  you're right here by my side.

F                F
  Singing along,   sick of my song

Dm                 Dm
  it just happened   like thunder clapping,

G                         G
leaving us to wonder why.

         C                 E
