Intro:
C#m  F#m  C#m  F#m
C#m  Cm  Bm  E  A


Verse 1:
      A
Every night I read this novel
 G                D            A
About you holding roses in the pouring rain
        E                 G
But the ending's tore up, trying to hail a cab
G                              A
Think no one can read you, but I can

Pre-Chorus:
        C#m         F#m           C#m    F#m
Well we move into a house down on Cherry Lane
          C#m                  N.C.
And watch the world go by, I'm missing a page


Chorus:
Bm      G      D       A         G
I wanna be the one who walks you home
              D
Who walks you home tonight
 Bm            G             D          A
Stare into her eyes and then try and explain it
         G                              D
But it's written in a language that was meant to fuck you up
          A         Asus4  A
And I can never get close enough


Verse 2:
N.C.
But I lie
      A
But I lie down on her pillow
        G                 D      A
And you feel like you was going away
       E                   G
Going away when you got no place to go but
G                D
Back in her arms lying on her pillow


Pre-Chorus:
C#m              F#m          C#m    F#m
Curled up with a book down on Cherry Lane
    C#m                                N.C.
The glass it hits the floor and you're walking away


Chorus:
    Bm      G      D       A         G
But I wanna be the one who walks you home
              D
Who walks you home anyway
 Bm            G             D          A
Stare into her eyes and then try and explain it
G                   D
Try and explain it away
Bm      G      D       A         G
I wanna be the one who walks you home
              D
Who walks you home tonight
 Bm            G             D          A
Stare into her eyes and then try and explain it
G                            D
Try and explain it, but that shit just fucks you up
          A         Asus4  A
And I can never get close enough
