Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
You’ve been biking indoors
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
You’ve been sleeping outside
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
And your father’s worried
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
But he knows God is on your side
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
Waiting and watching
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
The crack in your door
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
You’d give all your blood
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
For her step to your floor
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 D
Take one for your mother
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
One for the ride home
D Em
Lord knows it’s gonna be a long trip
C D
Be sure to dress warm
Em D/F# G C
It’ll be so cold
D D
Rush inside and hold your grip
[Refrain]
Em G
You’re in love with a girl
C G C
Who’s in love with the world
G D/F# Em
And she’s come to see you safe at home
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
(x2)
[Verse 2]
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
She took the long way
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
Just to see what she’d find
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
While you sold your soul
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
To stay out of your mind
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
You cleaned the whole house
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
When you got the call
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
Left out the good records
Em D/F# G Cmaj7
But you don’t miss her at all
[Chorus]
C D Em G Cmaj7
Save New York, save Paris, yes I know it’s a lie
D Em
We all do it sometimes
C D
When she asks how you are
Em G Cmaj7
Say you’re just scraping by
Cmaj7 D
Say she’s been much too hard to find
[Bridge]
B Cmaj7
Oh no, I don’t know what to do
G D
Now that I see
B Cmaj7
Oh, what will I, what will she do
G C
I know she needs me
Cm
She needs me
[Refrain]
Em G
You’re in love with a girl
Cmaj7 G
Who’s in love with the world
C G Cmaj7
And she’s come to see you safe
G C
Oh, she’s come to see you safe
G Cmaj7
Oh, she wants to know I’m safe
Cm/Eb
She needs me
