[Intro] Riff (G, Asus4, Em7, Cadd2)
 
[Verse]
            G                        Asus4
I know it's dark here, you know that I'm scared too
    Em7                       Cadd2
For some reason right now, of everything but you
G                D5         C
Right now you're all that I recognize
           G                Asus4
You know I came here when I needed your soft voice
  Em7                           Cadd2
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
      G              D5          Cadd2
Now I wait here, and sometimes I get one
 
 
[Bridge]
 
D5                Cadd2
It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired
D5                       Cadd2
You are stuck to me everyday
D5                                Cadd2   Bm#5   Em7
Believe in what I am because it's all   I have today
      Cadd2              D5        G     Cadd2  Em7
And tomorrow who knows where we'll be
Cadd2  Bm#5       Asus4   Cadd2   D5  G
From   here I can hardly  see     a   thing
    Cadd2         Em7                     Cadd2
But I will follow anyone who brings me to you
    Bm#5    Asus4     Cadd2  D
For now, forever, for on and on and on
 
 
Intro Riff again (G, Asus4, Em7, Cadd2)
 
[Verse]
            G                    Asus4
You know it starts here, outside waiting in the cold
        Em7                          Cadd2
Kiss me once in the snow, I swear it never gets old
           G                 D5             Cadd2
But I will promise you I can make it warmer next year
           G                Asus4
You know I came here when I needed your soft voice
  Em7                           Cadd2
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
      G              D5         Cadd2
Now I stay here, and everyday I get one
 
 
[Bridge]
 
D5                Cadd2
It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired
D5                       Cadd2
You are stuck to me everyday
D5                                Cadd2   Bm#5   Em7
Believe in what I am because it's all   I have today
      Cadd2            D5          G     Cadd2  Em7
And tomorrow who knows where we'll be
Cadd2 Bm#5       Asus4  Cadd2   D5  G
From  here I can hardly see     a   thing
    Cadd2         Em7                     Cadd2
But I will follow anyone who brings me to you
    Bm#5    Asus4     Cadd2  D
For now, forever, for on and on and on
 
 
Intro Riff again (G, Asus4, Em7, Cadd2)
 
[Verse]
      G             D5      Cadd2
So go plug in your electric blanket
       G                 D5              Cadd2
We can stay in 'till our southern summer wedding day
   G             D5      Cadd2
Go plug in your electric blanket
D5     G    D5    Cadd2  D5    G
We can stay here
