Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

A minorAm C majorC G+G D MajorD x2

C majorC
I remember I was singing about September
E minorEm    G+G                  D MajorD
When you walked across the boardwalk to that smoky bar
C majorC               E minorEm
And I'd been singing for the last six nights
G+G                      D MajorD
And I could barely talk to tell you just how pretty you were
       C majorC       E minorEm
But you were as pretty as a preachers wife on Sunday
     G+G                D MajorD
And I was useless like a church bell on a Friday night
G+G             E minorEm
I felt like a tragedy all dressed in dirty clothes
     G+G             D MajorD
When you walked out before I could say

Pre-Chorus 1:

A minorAm
How when you stopped in
  C majorC
And the world stopped spinning
G+G        D MajorD
I gotta let you know
     A minorAm
Just how I've become an artist
  C majorC
And how things fall apart
  G+G       D MajorD
Its the only thing I know


Chorus:
D MajorD       A minorAm  E minorEm
Won't you just stay here
C majorC       G+G     D MajorD
Would you just stay here
        A minorAm    C majorC
Won't you just stay here
C majorC      G+G  D MajorD
We can just stay here


Verse 2:
C majorC           E minorEm
Spent the whole next night on the telephone
    G+G              D MajorD
We were both alone and waiting on a change
 C majorC          E minorEm
And I remember I felt as suave as a prom date
G+G                    D MajorD
15 minutes late in a rented suit and his mothers car
C majorC                    E minorEm
The next night was a Monday and you came over to my house
     G+G           D MajorD
We hardly talked about anything, but it never got quiet until we
C majorC                E minorEm
Kissed our first of many and the clock hands took reprieve
G+G                    D MajorD
From the round the clock labor of their day to day

Pre-Chorus 2:
A minorAm
Cause when you stopped in
  C majorC
And the world stopped spinning
G+G         D MajorD
I've gotta let you know
A minorAm                          C majorC
That I know it will I don't know when that time will matter again
   G+G           D MajorD
But I don't want to let you go


Chorus:
D MajorD       A minorAm  E minorEm
Won't you just stay here
C majorC       G+G     D MajorD
Would you just stay here
        A minorAm    C majorC
Won't you just stay here
C majorC      G+G  D MajorD
We can just stay here


Musical break:
C majorC E minorEm G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD

C majorC            E minorEm
I was thinking I'd swing by sometime around midnight
G+G         D MajorD
Turn my headlights off when I get near
G+G                E minorEm
Lets say you and me, we get the hell out of this town
G+G                  D MajorD
Cause weâre the only thing that ever happened here
C majorC               E minorEm
I've got 50 dollars and if we ride with the windows down
   G+G               D MajorD
And I screen my smokes I think we'll make it into Georgia
  C majorC
And we'll improvise from there
  E minorEm
Everybody know from here
        G+G                 D MajorD
That you canât go to hell without passing through Atlanta first
   C majorC
I'll find a dead end job and
    E minorEm
Try to write a dead end song
    G+G              D MajorD
Just thoughtless enough to make the radio
  C majorC
And we'll drink wine like water
  E minorEm
As if we had a sorrow to drown
G+G            D MajorD
If that donât work it's alright baby
      A minorAm   G+G E minorEm
We can just stay here
E minorEm     G+G    D MajorD
We can just stay here


Pre-Chorus 3:
C majorC
Because when you stopped in

And the world stopped spinning
G+G        D MajorD
I gotta let you know
     C majorC
Just how I've become an artist

At how things fall apart
  G+G        D MajorD
Its the only thing I know


Chorus:
D MajorD       A minorAm  E minorEm
Won't you just stay here
C majorC       G+G     D MajorD
Would you just stay here
        A minorAm    C majorC
Won't you just stay here
C majorC      G+G  D MajorD
We can just lay here


Bridge:
D MajorD      A minorAm   C majorC
We can just stay here
C majorC      G+G    D MajorD
We can just stay here
D MajorD     A minorAm    C majorC
We can get away dear
C majorC      G+G    D MajorD
We can just lay here


Outro:
C majorC        E minorEm
I remember I was singing about September
     G+G               D MajorD
