Be My Somebody

Tom: E

E
I'm too foggy today,
                       A
To know what you're sayin',
E
Your lips are moving so fast,
                   A
And I just keep praying,
                  B
For them to slow down,
   C#m    B         A
So I can make some sense,
        Am                     E
Of the words that are pouring out,
          B
Of your crooked spout.

     E                         B
Last night was a record to be broken,
     E                         B
It broke all over the kitchen floor,
    A            B
Oh no don't you go,
     C#m    B         A
I'm coming back with a rag,
        Am                     E
To wipe away the haze from the days,
           B          E
We've forgotten all about.

          D          A
So be my somebody tonight,
       E
Be the one who'll hold me tight,
         D A     E
Honey, please, please,
          D            A
Cuz I've been so all alone,
      E
And no one will pick up the phone,
           D A     E
So honey, please stay.

    E                         B
I held your head up, do you remember?
    E                         B
When you wanted to make a blanket outta me,
 A            B
Oh I can't lie ...
  C#m    B         A
I been keeping score,
   Am                     E
And it's your turn to wring me out,
     B              E
And lay me down to dry.

          D          A
So be my somebody tonight,
       E
Be the one who'll hold me tight,
         D A     E
Honey, please, please,
          D            A
Cuz I've been so all alone,
      E
And no one will pick up the phone,
           D A     E
So honey, please stay.
         D A    E
Honey, please stay,
         D A    E
Honey, please stay.
