Banks of the 49
::Intro::
Bb majorBb
::Verse #1::
FF
Sometimes I lie awake and I wonder how you’re doing
FF
It’s been a long time since we spoke
dm
Last time I was there you had music in the air
C majorC
We listened till the stereo broke
FF
I told you I believed you it’s not really true
FF
I only want to see you come alive
dm
Winter’s come and gone and there’s flowers on the lawn
C majorC
I miss you coming up my drive
::Pre-Chorus::
Bb majorBb
You’d tell me different if I ever lost my way
Bb majorBb
You’d tell me different if I needed somewhere to stay
gm
You’d tell me all the things I needed to hear and never could
C majorC
And you’d always be careful and kind
::Chorus::
dm
If you want to know what’s on my mind
FF
Let me be some help to you this time
am
If you want to wake up in the morning and throw roses in the rain
C majorC
Cry yourself to sleep at night and practice your pain
dm
If you want to know what’s on my mind
FF
Come on up and see me I’ve been waiting for you all this time
::Interlude::
Bb majorBb
::Verse #2::
FF
Up here the days last forever it seems
FF
The sunlight caresses your face
dm
You can hear the dogs howling at night
C majorC
You’ll think you’re in the holiest place
FF
I’ve always played it careful now maybe I was wrong
FF
I think of you as fragile and young
dm
I have seen the darkness come over your face
C majorC
Felt the poison of your tongue
::Pre-Chorus::
Bb majorBb
You’d tell me different if I ever lost my way
Bb majorBb
You’d tell me different if I needed somewhere to stay
gm
You’d tell me all the things I needed to hear and never could
C majorC
And you’d always be careful and kind
::Chorus::
dm
If you want to know what’s on my mind

Let me be some help to you this time

F/CF/C
Lately there’s something disturbing my sleep
FF
I dream about you almost every night
dm
You’re alone in your place and there’s a look on your face
C majorC
I don’t know if it is anger or fright
FF
All that I can tell you is I’m waiting to hear
FF
You know that I am faithful to a flaw
dm
When you change your mind and you step outside
C majorC
Hope I’ll be the one you call
::Chorus::
dm
If you want to know what’s on my mind
FF
Let me be some help to you this time
am
If you want to wake up in the morning and throw roses in the rain
C majorC
Cry yourself to sleep at night and practice your pain
dm
If you want to know what’s on my mind
dm
Look over your shoulder I won’t be far behind
FF
Come on up and see me on the banks of the 49
