F              C
She checks her pulse
G                 Am             G
Gotta know if her heart's still beating
F         C
And the hospital's
G            Am            G
Not far if anything should happen here


[Verse 2]
F                C
She's bored in a week
G              Am          G
Big dreams but nothing material
F                 C
And I refuse to believe
                     G
That love is for the weak
       Am        G
I said I'm not vulnerable


[Chorus]
F    C           G         Am
Hey lady, don't give up on me
       F              C
Don't burn your heart out, love
            G        Am
'Till we're ash over seas
F    C           G            Am
Hey lady, said I don't wanna fight
       F                C
Like pretty girls need cowboys
  G               Am
I need you here tonight


[Verse 3]
F               C
She screams for more
G                   Am        G
More than just some blue eyed metaphor
F               C               G
And the trouble is, the trouble is
Am            G
She's always searching


[Verse 4]
F            C     G
In the hours late, don't wanna hear
          Am        G
That it's all gonna end soon
F           C             G
No, I'm not crazy, I'm in control
     Am                G
And all of my friends still know


[Chorus]
F    C           G         Am
Hey lady, don't give up on me
      F                C
Don't burn your heart out, love
            G        Am
'Till we're ash over seas
    F    C            G           Am
And hey lady, said I don't wanna fight
       F                C
Like pretty girls need cowboys
  G               Am
I need you here tonight


[Bridge]
        Dm        Em            F
I'm on one knee, lover, please
                  G
How can I put it more simply?
       Dm   Em              F  G
And I wait, for your invitation
        Dm       Em          F  G
And I'm so so so, so over waiting
        Dm        Em            F
I'm on one knee, lover, please
                  G
How can I put it more simply?


[Chorus]
F    C           G         Am
Hey lady, don't give up on me
       F               C
Don't burn your heart out, love
            G        Am
'Till we're ash over seas
    F    C            G           Am
And hey lady, said I don't wanna fight
       F                C
Like pretty girls need cowboys
  G               Am
I need you here tonight


[Chorus]
F    C           G         Am
Hey lady, don't give up on me
       F               C
Don't burn your heart out, love
            G        Am
'Till we're ash over seas
    F    C            G           Am
And hey lady, said I don't wanna fight
      F                 C
Like pretty girls need cowboys
 G                Am
I need you here tonight
