[Verse]
A G
Dead leaves and the dirty ground
C D A
when I know you're not around
A G
shiny tops and soda pops
C D A
when I hear your lips make a sound
F G A
when I hear your lips make a sound
A G
Thirty notes in the mailbox
C D A
will tell you that I'm coming home
A G
and I think I'm gonna stick around
C D A
for a while so you're not alone
F G A
for a while so your not alone
[Break]
A5 G5 C5 D5 A5
A5 G5 C5 D5 A5
[Verse]
A5 G5
If you can hear a piano fall
F#5 F5 A5
you can hear me coming down the hall
A G
If I can just hear your pretty voice
C D A
I don't think I need to see at all
F G A
don't think I need to see at all
A G
Soft hair and a velvet tongue
C D A
I wanna give you what you give to me
A G
and every breath that is in your lungs
C D A
is a tiny little gift to me
F G A
is a tiny little gift to me
[Break]
A5 G5 C5 D5 A5
A5 G5 C5 D5 A5
[Chorus]
D A G A
I didn't feel so bad 'til the sun went down
D
then I come home
F
no one to wrap my arms around
G
wrap my arms around
[Verse]
A5 G5
Well any man with a microphone
F#5 F5 A5
can tell you what he loves the most
A G
And you know why you love at all
C D A
if you're thinking of the holy ghost
F G A
if you're thinking of the holy ghost
[Instrumental]
A G C D A
