Capo 1
Am
This the shit they gonna play,
F
on every station every day
C
These the words you can't escape,
G
girl I wrote this song for you
Am
When you're drivin in your car
F
pretending you don't know the words by heart
C
Girl I'll be your superstar,
G
told you from the start I was gonna write a song for you
Am
I'm trying to think back to that,
after that,
F
Journey to your heart always seemin like I had the map
C
In these trips I've had to do,
I was simply passin through
G
Was a dedication, now its chapter two
Am
On these pages now I see that,
F
when I'm with you I can't be that
C
Guy that you need now, so whats this story about?
G
It don't seem like you can figure it out
Am
No, a lots change since we met up in June
F
This love you can't buy but you let it consume
C
And I try for you but it just don't work
G
I won't lie to you baby what's this worth
Am
AlFl this fightin gets us nowhere
F
Losin you to the crowd
C
And there's no way we gon make this right
G
So baby go and turn your radio loud
[Chorus]
Am
An eternity of questions while answers she had none of
F
Still when I was with her toss and turn until the sun up
C
Wait for me to come up, don't let it blind you
G
I have half a mind to remind you
Am
That I can't be there every time you need me
F
If you don't like that then you can leave me
C
But I won't sit here and have you tell me I'm wrong
G
'Cause been right and I'll be writin till I'm gone
Am
You say you lie awake waitin,
F
Like thats the reason we're fadin,
C
Keep blamin me it just ain't right
G
And it's not my fault you can't sleep at night
Am
All this fightin got us nowhere
F
Lost you to the crowd
C
And you will see where went wrong
G
You just gotta turn your radio loud
[Chorus]
Am
Now I'm livin the life
F
We was doin it wrong,
now we getting it right
C
Its been a long time since I written this song
G
Used to turn this off,
now you singing along
Am
And even though we're done for
F
Girl I'll prolly see you at my shows in the front row
C
Screamin out the words like I told you you would do
G
And even though it hurts, you always knew
That I was gonna write a song for you
[Chorus x2]
Told you what I would do
Kept my word when I said I was gonna write a song for you
