(Note: This is a very basic version of what's on the CD -

On the CD, there is some nice fingerpicking - nothing that

is too hard, as fingerpicking goes, it's just a matter

of learning how to fingerpick...)

Verse 1:

D F#m

Kiss me baby on the curb

G D

Throw your arms around my waist

D F#m

Send me off with your sweet words

G D

Say a little prayer, show a little faith

G G/F#

These boots are broken in

Em

From always leaving you

A

This road takes a lot of turns

Each one leads me back to you, but

Chorus:

D F#m G

If you're here when I get back

D

Will you open up the door

D F#m G

If you're here when I get back

Em

Will you pull me to the floor

G A

Will you kiss me like before?

D G

I couldn't ask for more

D G

I couldn't ask for more

Verse 2:

I know you hate to sleep alone

I feel strangers closing in

I wanna crawl right through this phone

And feel the softness of your skin

I feel so helpless and

These walls are creeping close

In this here hotel room

Tonight I'm sleeping with your ghost, but

Chorus:

If you're here when I get back

Will you put my fears to rest?

If you're here when I get back

Lay your head upon my chest

With nothing to confess

Aw, baby, please say yes

Aw, baby, please say yes

Interlude:

D (walkdown and back up twice - just listen

to the song if you need to hear it and play

essentially the same lick as the intro, except

don't go to G, just stay in D)

Verse 3:

If I stay away too long

And somebody takes my place

Whenever sad boys sing their songs

I'll hear your voice, I'll see your face

And if the morning light we never share

You know you're there, each and every single prayer, but

Chorus:

If you're here when I get back

We'll put all that aside

If you're here when I get back

Will you open your arms wide?

Will you let me come inside?

I'd be so satisfied

I'd be so satisfied

D G

I'd be so satisfied

D G

I'd be so satisfied
