VERSE
         F                C
Well I want you as you are
       F                C
Not some collapsing star
       F                     C
I'll wait I'll wait for good
         F
What else can I do

CHORUS
Am       Em                F
I don't want you as a ghost
Am       Em                   F
I don't want you as a fading light
Am       Em                        F
I don't want to be the weight you carry
Am       Em                           F            C
I just want to be the man you come home to every night

VERSE
         F                C
Well I want you as you are
        F                 C
Don't be someone you're not
     F                 C
The kids that we once were
        F
They wouldn't know us now

CHORUS
Am       Em                F
I don't want you as a ghost
Am       Em                   F
I don't want you as a fading light
Am       Em                        F
I don't want to be the weight you carry
Am       Em                           F            G
I just want to be the man you come home to every night
