Capo 3rd fret

G               Em
I was lost till you were found
Am               D
But I never knew how far down
      G
I was falling
         Em             C      D
Before I reached the bottom
G              Em
I was cold and you were fire
Am               D
And I never knew how the pyre
         G
Could be burning
       Em          C           D
On the edge of the ice field
            C           D       G
And the now chilly california wind
   C                D        G
Is blowing down our bodies again
         Em                 Am              G                 D
And were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly california sand
     C           Am     G
Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
Em                  Am          D
And cant you see my faded levis bursting apart
G#m
And dont you hear me crying:
   Bb
Oh babe, dont go
C
And dont you hear me screaming:
D
How was I to know? 
G                   C
Im in the middle of nowhere
D                   G
Near the end of the line
                       C
But theres a border to somewhere waiting
D                       G
And theres a tankful of time
                  C            D                       G
Oh give me just another moment to see the light of the day
                 C                D              G
And take me to another land where I dont have to stay

Em           D                C                 G
And Im gonna need somebody to make me feel like you do
Em           D                   C
And I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes,
Am                                                     D
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through
Em             D
For crying out loud
           G
You know I love you
Em             D
For crying out loud
           G
You know I love you
Em             D
For crying out loud
           C         Am    D
You know I love you

G
For taking in the rain when Im feeling so dry
    Am
For giving me the answers when Im asking you why
C         D
And my oh my
           G
For that I thank you

For taking in the sun when Im feeling so cold
    Am
For giving me a child when my body is old
C            D
And dont you know
           G
For that I need you

For coming to my room when you know Im alone
    Am
For finding me a highway and driving me home
C             D
And you gotta know
           G
For that I serve you

For pulling me away when Im starting to fall
    Am
For revving me up when Im starting to stall
C          D
And all in all
           G
For that I want you

For taking and for giving and for playing the game
    Am
For praying for my future in the days that remain
C  D
Oh lord
           G
For that I hold you
               Em
Ah but most of all
              D
For cryin out loud
           G
For that I love you
               Em
Ah but most of all
              D
For cryin out loud
           G
For that I love you

               Em
Ah but most of all
              D
For cryin out loud
           G
For that I love you
           Em         D
When youre crying out loud
           G
You know I love you
