C Csus4
You don’t have to be so scared,
Am G
You don’t have to go tonight,
C Csus4
We just need to hold on tight,
Am (finger thing) G
For one hell of a ride.
C Csus4
‘Cause we lost it all just now,
Am G
To the night that left you out,
C Csus4
So we’ll let this go somehow,
Am G
But you’re gonna be proud.
C
And I just needed you to lift me up,
Csus4
Like you did when we were younger,
Am G
When the lightening and the thunder had me clinging to your heart,
C
For someone to lift me up,
Csus4
When I’m down and I’m forgotten,
Am* G
You’ll forever be my father and I will be saving tears in jars for this one.

It’s the last time we will speak,
Am G
So you listen to me.
C
And I just needed you to pick me up,

Like you did when we were younger,

For someone to lift me up,

When I’m down and I’m forgotten,

You’ll forever be my father and I’ll be saving tears in jars for this one.
