You
                         C
You are my brother and I love you like

Like a brother
         G
Like I'd ride your bike home after school
            D
And fix you peanut butter
                        G
Sandwiches when you're sad

                          C
Because believe me, I get sad sometimes
                       G
I get so shaky I could lose my mind
                            D
And I will wait with you in the meantime

                    Am
If you find you're weary
                    C
If you find you're weak
                 Am
If you find yourself
                                        C
Without the comfort that you've come to seek
                  G
You can count on me

You
                          C
You are the leader of the pack, it's true
                              G
Without you we would not know what to do
                          D
I dare to say we wouldn't have a clue
                              G
No, we'd be clueless without you
                              C
You have the nicest heart somebody can
                       G
Always there to lend a helping hand
                      D
Drive 3 hours just to see my band

                    Am
If you find you're weary
                    C
If you find you're weak
                 Am
If you drive all night and
                           C
Don't like what it is you see
                  G
You can count on me

We
                              C
We wrote this song in someone else's house
                           G
When we were on a trip way out of town
                          D
I had this feeling like I might just drown
                 G
Did you have it too?
                          C
Had no idea that you were part of this
                             G
You wrote the chorus and you placed the bridge
                         D
Your music has a certain grace in it

                    Am
If you find you're weary
                    C
If you find you're weak
               Am
If you try all night and still you just can't
              C
Write a melody
                   G
You can count on me

G
Yes, it's true

I always have to hide my art
            C
'Cause if I didn't hide my art

Then it would lead back to my heart
         G
And if I led you to my heart

Then you would find me sitting there
      C
On a pile of all the clothes

That I stole from you last year

    G
And then I'd start to cry
                                               C
And I won't want to write my feelings, it's alright
So I lie

Make it funny, make it rhyme
       G
And I hope that you believe me

And that's how I play it live
            D
'Cause I think that you believe me

Miss the real important lines

      G
Like, how I get so sad sometimes

And how I get so shaky
     C
Like you could just ignore all that

If I use the word achey
        G
And pretend like it's a love song

I don't care that it's not true
         D
Besides, isn't that what love's about?

I'll hide myself behind you

        G
I will hide myself behind you

I'll hide myself behind you
        C
I will hide myself behind you

I'll hide myself behind you
        G
I will hide myself behind you

I'll hide myself behind you
        D
I will hide

                                 Am
'Cause maybe I'm the one that's weary
                          F
Maybe I'm the one that's weak
                 Am
And now I find myself without the words
                    C
I really want to speak
                    G
But you can count on me
