Verse:
E
Lately I'm alright
And lately I'm not scared
C#m
I've figured out
B
That what you do to me feels like
A

All I know is I believe
In the very thing that got us here
C#m B C#m Eb*
And now I can't leave

Verse:
E
Now,
A
I'm wanting this for sure
C#m
And I'll beg for nothing more
B
I'll plan all day and drive all night
A
You'll love what's in store
I can't seem to stop this now

Even if it's not so clear
And I'll take what I can get
C#m B *mute all strumming*
If you want me here (If you want me here)
