Tom: Eb
Bb
Take me to the river, baby
F
Let my heart burn
Ab
With all the rubble and the ashes
Eb
Of your last words
Bb
Set my heart free
F
Let it float upon the river, baby
Ab
Tell me that you love me one more time
Eb
Even though you don't mean it
I'll take it as a lie
Fm Ab Eb
Cause something is better than nothing to me
[Chorus 1]
Bb F
Hold me like you did back in July
Ab Eb
Kiss me on the lips just one more time
Bb F
Hold me tight and never let me go
Ab Eb
Take me back even though I know the answer's no
Bb F Ab Eb
Maybe one day we'll work out but what if there's no maybe
Bb F Ab Eb
All I wanted from you was for you to call me baby
Fm Ab Eb
Cause something is better than nothing to me
Bb
So we can be friends

Take me to the high tops, baby

Throw my heart off the highest mountain you can find

Lie to me and say that you're mine

Let it fly into the high skies, baby

Tell me that you need me one more time

Cause something is better than nothing to me
