Banks of the 49
::Intro::
F - C/F - Bb - F - C/F - Bb
::Verse #1::
F
Sometimes I lie awake and I wonder how you�re doing
Bb F
It�s been a long time since we spoke
C dm
Last time I was there you had music in the air
gm C
We listened till the stereo broke
F
I told you I believed you it�s not really true
Bb F
I only want to see you come alive
C dm
Winter�s come and gone and there�s flowers on the lawn
gm C
I miss you coming up my drive
::Pre-Chorus::
am Bb
You�d tell me different if I ever lost my way
am Bb
You�d tell me different if I needed somewhere to stay
gm
You�d tell me all the things I needed to hear and never could
C
And you�d always be careful and kind
::Chorus::
Bb C dm
If you want to know what�s on my mind
Bb C F
Let me be some help to you this time
F C/E dm am
If you want to wake up in the morning and throw roses in the rain
gm Bb C
Cry yourself to sleep at night and practice your pain
Bb C dm
If you want to know what�s on my mind
Bb C F
Come on up and see me I�ve been waiting for you all this time
::Interlude::

Up here the days last forever it seems
Bb F
The sunlight caresses your face
C dm
You can hear the dogs howling at night
gm C
You�ll think you�re in the holiest place
F
I�ve always played it careful now maybe I was wrong
Bb F
I think of you as fragile and young
C dm
I have seen the darkness come over your face
gm C
Felt the poison of your tongue
::Pre-Chorus::
am Bb
You�d tell me different if I ever lost my way
am Bb
You�d tell me different if I needed somewhere to stay
gm
You�d tell me all the things I needed to hear and never could
C
And you�d always be careful and kind

F F/A F/C
Lately there�s something disturbing my sleep
Bb F
I dream about you almost every night
C dm
You�re alone in your place and there�s a look on your face
gm C
I don�t know if it is anger or fright
F
All that I can tell you is I�m waiting to hear
Bb F
You know that I am faithful to a flaw
C dm
When you change your mind and you step outside
gm C
Hope I�ll be the one you call
::Chorus::
Bb C dm
If you want to know what�s on my mind
Bb C F
Let me be some help to you this time
F C/E dm am
If you want to wake up in the morning and throw roses in the rain
gm Bb C
Cry yourself to sleep at night and practice your pain
Bb C dm
If you want to know what�s on my mind
Bb C dm
Look over your shoulder I won�t be far behind
Bb C F
Come on up and see me on the banks of the 49
::Outro::
F - C/F - Bb - F - C/F - Bb
