Intro: G - D - Cadd2 (2x)
Verse 1:
[G]Kelly is ra[Cadd2]ising her son
[G]His dad left just after the [Cadd2]birth
[G]Now she's living on c[Cadd2]hild support checks
[Em7]I guess that's all that man was w[Cadd2]orth
[G]She said I just need a man who will [Cadd2]love me
[G]But they all just want one night of [Cadd2]sin
[G]I know our life could be [Cadd2]better
[Em7]I just don't know [Cadd2]where I should [D]begin
Chorus:
She said [G]write [D]me a s[Cadd2]ong
[G]One that makes [D/F#]all the girls [Cadd2]cry
[D/F#]And the old women [G]swoon
[D/F#]At the sound of my [Cadd2]tune
[Em7]And the hearts of the lonely will [A]fly
[Cadd2-D]Yeah, they'll fly[G]
Verse 2:
[G]Beth, she sings st[Cadd2]raight from the heart
[G]She's hidden her tracks very [Cadd2]well
[G]But these days she's [Cadd2]falling apart
[Em7]And it makes me feel just like [Cadd2]hell
[G]She says, boy, you can't [Cadd2]imagine my life
[G]The death and the drugs and [Cadd2]the pain
[G]And though I keep [Cadd2]running
[Em7]I just can't seem to break from these [Cadd2]chains
Chorus 2:
She said [G]write [D]me a [Cadd2]song
[G]Fill it all [D/F#]up with good [Cadd2]words
[D/F#]Like brilliant and h[G]eavenly
[D/F#]Make it sound j[Cadd2]ust like me
[Em7]Just like the first time I [A]love you was heard
(Chorus 1)
Bridge:
[Am]We're all feeding our [Em7]lonely
[Am]Like it might go [Em7]away
[Am]The doors of hea[Em7]ven swing wide
[D]If we just find the right words to say[G]
(Chorus 2)
(Chorus 1)
She said [G]write [D]me a [Cadd2]song (Repeat until fade)
