[G] [A]
[Em]
[G] [A]
[Em] [C] [G]
I know it's dark here, [A] you know what I'm scared [D] to
[Em] For some reason right [C] now, everything but you
[G] And right [D] now you're all that [C] I recognize
[G] You know I came here [D] when I needed [A] your soft [Em] voice
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
[G] Now I'm wet here, [D] and sometimes [G] I [C] get one
[D] And it's nothing [G] I forget, when the moon [D] gets tired
You are stuck to me [Em] every day
[D] Believe in what I am, [G] because it's all that I [Em] have today
[C] And tomorrow, [D] Lord, where [G] will [C] [Em] they
[C] [G] From here I [Am] can hardly [D] see [G] a [C] thing
But I will [Em] follow anyone who brings [C] me you
[G] For now, [Am] forever, for [G] on and on and [A] on
You
[Em] [G]
know it's stars here, [A] outside when it gets cold
[Em] Kiss me once in the snow, I swear it [G] never gets old
And I won't promise you [D] I can make it warmer [C] next year
[G] You know I came here [A] because I needed your soft [Em] voice
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
[G] Now I stare, [D] and every day [G] I get one
[D] And it's nothing [G] I forget, when the moon [D] gets tired
You are stuck to me [G] every day
[D] Believe in what I am, [G] because it's all that I have [Em] today
[C] And tomorrow, [D] Lord, where [G] will they
[C] [Em]
[C] From [G] here I can [Em] hardly [C] [G] see a thing
[C] But I will [Em] follow anyone who brings [C] me you
[G] For now, [Am] forever, for [G] on and on and on
[Em]
[C] For [G] on and on and on
[A]
[Em] So [G] go plug in [D] your [G] electric blanket
We could stay [D] here till our southern [G] summer wedding day
Go plug in [D] your [C] electric [D] blanket
We [G] can [D] stay here
[C] [G]
