You In January Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Wonder Years
capo 1st fret

                       G 
Goddamn you look holy
Bm             C
Hit from behind with light
        G               Bm
You're a painting of a saint
        C
And I'm nervous, stumbling over my lines
G       Bm        C
When I tell you I love you
When we stare at Catalina
G       Bm           C
The city lost to the sea
                        Am      D
Carried out by the tides
You were the one thing I got right

G Bm C x2

                        G
Goddamn you look holy
Bm             C
Bathed in the January light
G                       Bm
On the floor of our new bedroom
C
On the carpet with the window open wide
G            Bm        C
When you tell me you love me
I can actually see it
G               Bm          C
Your breath frozen in the air
                            Am D
Newborn droplets of ice
You were the one thing I got right

[Chorus]
C               G               
I'm measuring heartbeats and miles away
Em
You held me together
D
I used to burst and decay
C               G
We got off the airplane
Em
A couple of runaways
        Am
I was hoping you'd stay
C
Could you stay?

G       D       C
You were the obvious one
C
From a taxi cab in Chelsea
Am
Out past Salvation Mountain
G       D       C
You were the holiest one
C
From a walk along the highline
Am
Out to Wicker Park in August
C       D
You were the obvious one
Em      D       C
From your Upper East Side dorm room
Bm
To the South West Marin Headlands
Am
You smile into the sand
D
Goddamn I hate leaving

G
Bm     C
Another early flight
        G       Bm
I ran the dishwasher this morning
        C
I wanted there to be clean plates for you tonight
G       Bm     C
I've grown used to your perfume
It hangs in the morning light
G       Bm     C
Wake me up before you leave for work
        Am D
Kiss me goodbye
You were the one thing I got right

[Chorus]
C               G               
I'm measuring heartbeats and miles away
Em
You held me together
D
I used to burst and decay
C               G
We got off the airplane
Em
A couple of runaways
        Am
I was hoping you'd stay
C
Could you stay?

C               G               
I'm measuring heartbeats and miles away
Em
You held me together
D
I used to burst and decay
C               G
We got off the airplane
Em
A couple of runaways
C
I'm glad that you stayed
