    FF                            C majorC               FF

And somebody asked, "Can I take a picture "

          C majorC                                      C/BC/B       A minorAm

I wish I was in your back pocket or in your arms tonight

I wish that I was loud so you could hear me

What else must I be?

     E minorEm            A minorAm           FF              G+G
It's all inside my head I guess but it reminds me

That I need you, honey I need you

    FF                      C majorC              FF
And yellow flowers falling from a window, too

DmDm      E minorEm     FF       G+G      C majorC
Falling at the feet of such a coward
