[Intro]
C F Am G
[Verse 1]
C F
You don't have to be so scared
Am G
You don't have to go tonight
C F
I just need to hold on tight
Am G
For one hell of a ride
C F
And we lost it all just now
Am G
To the nights that left you out
C F
So we'll let this go somehow
Am G
But you're gonna be proud so proud
[Chorus]
C
And I just needed you to pick me up
F
Like you did when we were younger
Am
When the lightning and the thunder
G
Had me clinging to your heart
For someone
C
To lift me up
F
When I'm down and I'm forgotten
Am
You'll forever be my father
G
And I'll be saving tears in jars for this one
[Instrumental]
C F Am G
[Verse 2]
C F
How can I fit all these words
Am G
Into such a simple verse
C F
It's the last time that we'll speak
C G
So listen to me please
[Chorus]
C
And I just needed you to pick me up
F
Like you did when we were younger
Am
When the lightning and the thunder
G
Had me clinging to your heart
For someone
C
To lift me up
F
When I'm down and I'm forgotten
Am
You'll forever be my father
G
I'll be saving tears in jars for this one
[Instrumental]
C F Am G
[Chorus]
C F Am G
And I just needed you to pick me up Whoa oh oh oh oh oh (2x)
C
And I just needed you to pick me up
F
Like you did when we were younger
Am
When the lightning and the thunder
G
Had me clinging to your heart
For someone
C
To lift me up
F
When I'm down and I'm forgotten
Am
You'll forever be my father
G
I'll be saving tears in jars for this one
[Verse 3]
C F
Did you know that you're my heart
Am G
And it hurts to be apart
C F
And this cut it hurts so deep
Am G C
So sing me to sleep
