When I Come Around

Am7

Cadd9

The Ctire, well, it G6spins where the Am7gravel is Ffine

CHeading down the Cadd9county Groad

CI catch a G6glimpse of the Am7greyhound Fsign

CSee it through anGd watch it Cgo

AmIt'll chase the Gsun 'til it Fmakes it turn Cbright

As it heads down to Cadd9Houston Gtown

AmI'm gonna Gcatch it, buddy,F I just Cmight

Someday, when GI come aCround

When I come aFround, I'm a fool and a Cstranger

I come aGround, it's a Fdamn what they Csay

When I come aFround, dragging the Canchor

So toGnight, I'm Fdancing aCway

The tower, it G6got a fresh Am7coat of paint F

It's a-Cringing a Cadd9lot more Gclear

I Cguess it don't G6matter if Am7you know you Fain't

Gonna Cmake it tGoo far from Chere

She just Amstand like a Gmountain, she Fsleeps like a Cchild

She won't let her Cadd9memory Gdown

AmI'm gonna Gshake my way Fout of its Cside

Someday, when GI come aCround

When I come aFround, I'm a fool and a Cstranger

I come aGround, it's a Fdamn what they Csay

When I come aFround, dragging the Canchor

So toGnight, I'm Fdancing aCway G F Am

GI knew a guy and Fwe used to Csay

You live like you're spinning aGround

We used to Cdance while the Fband used to Cplay

FSlowly we sifted the Gsand

CHe caught the G6bus ten Am7years ago toFday

And Che hasn't Cadd9called me in Gnine

I Cthink now and G6then when I'm Am7acting some Fway

How he Cpromised to Gkeep me in Cline

AmHe chased the Gsun 'til it Fmade him turn Cbright

And the band put their Cadd9instruments Gdown

AmI'm gonna Gcatch him, buddy,F I just Cmight

Someday, when GI come aCround

When I come aFround, I'm a fool and a Cstranger

I come aGround, it's a Fdamn what they Csay

GI hope you never lose your sense of wonder

You get your fEmill to eat, but always keep that hunger

May you nCever take one single breath for granted

God forbDid love ever leave you empty-handed

I hope you sCtill feel small when you sDtand beside the oGcean

Whenever oCne door closes DI hope one more oGpens

And when you get the choice to sit it out or daDnce

I hope you daEmnce C G D

I hope you nGever fear those mountains in the distance

Never seEmttle for the path of least resistance

Living miCght mean taking chances, but they're worth taking

Loving miDght be a mistake, but it's worth making

Don't lCet some hell-bent hDeart leave you bGitter

When you come clCose to selling oDut reconsGider

Give the hAmeavens above moGre than just a paCssing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or daDnce

I hope you daEmnce C G D I hope you danEmce C D

I hope you stCill feel small when you stDand beside the ocGean

Stubborn

Key: FCapo 1Hard

Dm7

There's a Fwhole lot of Gstubborn in this Croom

There's a Emwhole lot of Fpride that won't let Cgo

There's a Fwhole lot of Gstubborn in this Amroom G

That Dmshows no sign of Cgiving up conGtrol

FI've drawn all the Gcurtains, I've turned Cout all the lights

EmScared to death someFbody else might Csee

There's a Amwhole lot of Gstubborn in this A7sus4room D Dm

DmAnd there's Gno one here but Cme

There's a Fwhole lot of Gdemons in this Croom

They Emwant it all and Fthey don't wanna Cshare

There's a Fwhole lot of Gdemons in this Amroom G

And Dmnone of them beClieve in fighting Gfair

FSome sit on my Gleft, some sit Con my right

They Emtalk so loud it's Fhard to disaCgree

I'm surAmrounded by the Gdemons in this A7sus4room D Dm

And there's Gno one here but Cme

And EbI can't quite reBbmember how to Cpray anymore

EbI can't quite reDmmember what to Csay anymore

If Amit turns out that GI can't have my Dmway anymore

How will I know which way to Dm7turn, when GI walk out the door?

There's a Fmolecule of Gfaith in this Croom

EmWhat they used to Fcall the mustard Cseed

There's a Fmolecule of Gfaith in this Amroom G

And a Dmbook that says that's Call I'll ever Gneed

I Fdon't know where it Gis, but I Chope I find it soon

'Cause Emnothing else will Fever set me Cfree

There's a Ammolecule of Gfaith in this A7sus4room D

And Dmeven though it's Cmuch too small to Fsee

DmIf I have the Ccourage to beFlieve

I'll Dmfind the one who Gleft it here for Cme

Why They Call It Falling

Key: CCapo 4Hard

It's like Cjumping, it's like Fleaping

It's like Gwalking on the Cceiling

It's like floating, it's like Fflying through the aiG7sus4r G7

It's like Csoaring, it's like Fgliding

It's a Grocket ship you're Criding

It's a feeling that can Ftake you anywherG7sus4e G7

So Cwhy they call it Ffalling

GWhy they call it Amfalling

FWhy they call it Gfalling

I don't Cknow F G

There was Cpassion, there was Flaughter

The Gfirst morning Cafter

So Cwhy they call it Ffalling

GWhy they call it Amfalling

FWhy they call it Gfalling

When Git all comes aCpart

It's like someone takes a Fpin to your balG7sus4loon G7

It's a Chole, it's a Fcave

It's Gkinda like a Cgrave

When he tells you that he's Ffound somebody neG7sus4w G7

And Cwhy they call it Ffalling

GWhy they call it Amfalling

FWhy they call it Gfalling

Now I Cknow F

GWhy they call it Amfalling
