^{Key: :[C#] (w: Edwin McCain) (BPM: 136) (Original Key: B)}

INTRO: [C#] [F#sus2] // [C#] [F#sus2]

VERSE 1:
The [C#] strands in your eyes, that [F#sus2] color them wonderful
[C#] Stop me and steal my [G#/C] breath [F#/A#]
And [C#] emeralds from mountains, that [F#sus2] thrust towards the sky
[C#] Never revealing their [G#/C] depth [F#/A#]

PRE-CHORUS:
And [C#] tell [G#/C] me that [F#/A#] we belong to [G#/C] gether
[C#] Dress it [G#/C] up, with the [F#/A#] trappings of [G#/C] love
I'll [C#] be capti-[G#/C]-vated, I'll [F#/A#] hang from your [G#/C] lips
In-[C#]-stead of the [C#] gallows, of [G#/C] heartache that [G#/C] hang from a-[F#/A#]-bove [F#/A#] [G#/C] [G#/C]

CHORUS:
[C#] I'll be [F#sus2] your cryin' shoulder
[C#] I'll be love's [G#/C] suicide [F#/A#]
And [C#] I'll be [F#sus2] better when I'm older
[C#] I'll be, the [G#/C] greatest [F#/A#] fan of your [C#] life [F#sus2] [C#] [G#/C] [F#/A#]

VERSE 2:
And [C#] rain falls [F#sus2] angry on the tin roof
As [C#] we lie awake in my [G#/C] bed [F#/A#]
And [C#] you're my survival, you're [F#sus2] my living proof
My [C#] love is alive and not [G#/C] dead [F#/A#]

REPEAT PRE-CHORUS:

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
And I've [A#m7] dropped out, I've burned up, I've [G#] fought my way back from the dead [F#]
[A#m7] I Tuned in, I turned on, re [G#] membered the thing that you [F#] said [B] [G#]

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
