[Em]
[G] [A]
[Em] [D] I [G] know it's dark here, you [A] know what I'm scared to
[Em] For some reason right now, [D] of everything but you
[G] And right [D] now you're all that I recognize
You know I came here [A] when I really just saw a [Em] voice
I needed to hear something [D] that sounded like an answer
[G] Now I'm wet here [D] and sometimes I get one
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 have [Em] to say
[C] And tomorrow [D] knows where [G] we'll lay
[Em]
[C] And from here [Am] I can hardly see [G] a thing
But I will [Em] follow anyone who brings [C] me low
[G] For now, [Am] forever, for on and [G] on and on
[A] You
[Em] [G]
know it's dark here, [A] I've had wetting in the cold
[Em] Kiss me once in the snow, I [C] swear it never gets old
And then I will promise you, [D] I can make it warmer [C] next year
You [G] know I came here [A] because I needed your soft [Em] voice
I needed to hear something [A] that sounded like an answer
[G] Now I stay here [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] to say
[C] And tomorrow [D] knows where [G] we'll lay
[Em]
[C] And [G] from here I can [Am] hardly see [G] a thing
But I will [Em] follow anyone who brings [C] me low
[G] For now, [Am] forever, for on and [G] on and on
[E]
[Em] [C] For [G] on and on and on
[A]
[Em] [G] So [D] go plug in your electric [A] blanket
[G] We could stay here till our southern summer wedding day
[D] Go plug in your [G] electric [D] blanket
We [G] can stay here
