Dave Mathews Band *

Bm 5x finger picked

G                   Bm
If these walls came crumbling down,
G                       Bm
Fell so hard to make us lose our faith,
G                      Bm
From what's left you'd figure it out,
G                                Bm
Still make lemonade taste like a sunny day,

Bm G A  Bm        A Bm
Stay,   beautiful baby
  A
I hope you
Bm G A   Bm      A Bm
Stay,   American baby
         A Bm

G        Bm
Nobody's laughing now,
G                       Bm
Gods grace lost and the devil is proud,
G                           Bm
But I've been walking for a thousand miles,
G                     Bm
One last time I could see you smile,

G           Bm
I, I, hold, hold on to you,
G                       Bm
You bring me hope, I'll see you soon,
G        Bm
And if I don't see you,
G                Bm
I'm afraid we've lost the way

Bm G A  Bm        A Bm
Stay,   beautiful baby

I hold on, to you, you lift me up
    Bm
And always will,

G            Bm
I see you in life,
                 G      Bm
Hope I don't get left behind,

G           Bm
I, I, hold, hold on to you,
G                       Bm
You bring me hope, I'll see you soon,
G        Bm
And if I don't see you,
G                Bm
I'm afraid we've lost the way

Nobody's laughing now,
Cause you could always make me laugh out loud,
