G - C                   (INTRO)

Hold on / head-strong lady / I’ve been gone / for a few short years. 
But my song / has you threaded through / for too long / unsure what to do. 
So I write it in a letter / and I bleed on the page / then I start to get better / burn a little sage / 
it’s a complicated matter / but at this day in age / I’m tired of playing games / 
so I’ll just come out and say it… 


Am7 - C - G - D (CHORUS)

Break free / my lady / come live here with me, 
If insight / serves me right / then it’s time that you by my side. 
Want you by my side. 

G - C                   (VERSE)

I’ve seen many places / fine women and wine, 
But through the course of my days / it’s often yours on my mind. 
And it hurts me so / to see you so intertwined, 
For that man you’re with is gonna’ make you lose your mind! 

Am7 - C - G - D (CHORUS)

Break free / my lady / come live here with me, 
If insight / serves me right / then it’s time that you by my side. 
Want you by my side. 

Break free / my lady / come live here with me, 
If insight / serves me right / then it’s time that you by my side. 
Want you by my side.

G - C                   (BRIGDE)

Would you hand me my water / want you by my side. 
We could drink a bit of whisky / want you by my side, 
We could go see a movie / want you by my side, 
Get freaky in the back seat / want you by my side, 

Would you like a cup of tea / want you by my side, 
When I’m brushing my teeth / want you by my side, 
When I wake up in the morning in the middle of the night, 
Want you by my side / want you by my side.

Am7 - C - G - D (CHORUS)

Break free / my lady / come live here with me, 
If insight / serves me right / then it’s time that you by my side. 
Want you by my side. 

Break free / my lady / come live here with me, 
If insight / serves me right / then it’s time that you by my side. 
Want you by my side.
