Intro and verses:

d=Downward Strum u=Upward Strum M=Mute

Come here butter cup

And let me fill you up

Can't you see I'm the blue in your skies

You can't tell by the stars in my eyes

ohh

Dawn always comes too soon

It hurts me like a bruise

There's a hole in my pillow

where you used to be

It feels like a hole in the middle of me

ohhhh

oh oh oh

Just take my hand

To have and hold if not obey

oh oh oh

Say you're still my man

I try and find the words to say

that I want you always to stay

to wake up with you

every single day

the words get in the way

*Mute*

Words get in the way

Tell your boss your dead

And let's go back to bed

You make me want to break out in song

but every time I try it just comes out wrong

ohhh

oh oh oh

just take my hand

to have and hold if not obey

oh oh oh

say you're still my man

I try and find the words to say

that I want you always to stay

To wake up with you

every single day

but the words get in the way

Words get in the way

I leave a message

On your answering machine

I try to say

What I really mean

Ohhh

oh oh oh

Just take my hand

To have and hold if not obey

Oh oh oh

say you're still my man

I try and find the nerve to say

that I want you always to stay

to wake up with you

every single day

Oh oh oh

just take my hand

to have and hold if not obey

oh oh oh

say you'll be my man

i try and find the nerve to say

that I want you always to stay

to wake up with you

every single day

words get in the way

Words get in the way
