[Verse 1]
N.C.
The first time I got muddy I was a young boy ten years old
That got lost in the woods in the middle of the night, in the dark and rainy cold
Young and damp a summer camp I was a funny little sleepwalker
I didn't think to tie myself to that oak tree before I fell asleep
When I stood up that night not knowing all of the while
Where I would end up when I wake up having slept-walked for a mile
I found myself running barefoot almost naked through those trees
I was in my underwear with branches slapping on my face and knees
 
[Verse 2]
E
I ran on top the rocks wet cedar thorns and moss
G#
Feeling nothing then the moon rose up and I realized I was lost
B
Then nowhere close to home for the first time I was alone
Then the lightning struck and the thunder shook and I called out for my mom
E
Give me some attention and that's what I yelled into the night
G#m
Please come down and help me, show me sympathetic light
B
Cause I need someone close to me if only for a minute
I'm not afraid of the dark I'm just scared of what's in it
 
[Chorus]
             E   G#m               B
Stay with me          Stay with me
             E   G#m               B
Stay with me          Stay with me
 
[Verse 3]
E
I had a dream last night that someone was taking my air from me
G#m
Creating ten times as many problems as any human could solve
B
They said you don't try hard enough and shoes don't always come in pairs
They love you when you make them look good but despise you behind closed doors
E
And with vague goals and deep cracks it told me I can do better than that
G#m
Living in the shadow of someone's light that won't turn on
B
You see misery isn't everything and I'm still learning that
Just give me the chance to turn my light back on
 
[Chorus]
             E   G#m               B
Stay with me          Stay with me
             E   G#m               B
Stay with me          Stay with me
 
[Bridge]
C#m    B
In the words of my father
E                    A
Yes I'm good enough, yes I'm good enough
C#m       B
Light the heart of my father
E                    A
Yes I'm good enough, yes I'm good enough
C#m B     E     A
Oh  woah, ohhhh woah
         C#m                     B
With the hope and strength of an ocean tide
 
[Chorus]
N.C.         E   G#m               B
Stay with me          Stay with me
             E
Stay with me, yes, I'm good enough, yes, I'm good enough
G#m          B                                           E
Stay with me, yes, I'm good enough, yes, I'm good enough
