Brandi Carlile - When Youre Wrong Chords

[Intro]
| Em | Em |
 
[Verse 1]
  Em                                 Em/D
"Don't go borrowin' trouble," that's what you used to say
    Em/C#                             Em/C
But we don't keep in touch the way we used to nowadays
 
     Em                            Em/D
Your eyes are not as bright as I remember them to be
    Em/C#                               Em/C                Bm7
The light inside's grown dim and that's hard for me to see
 
 
[Verse 2]
     Em                                Em/D
The creases on your forehead run like treads on a tire
    Em/C#                                      Em/C
The white stripe runnin' through your bangs: a long, twisted spire
 
        Em                                     Em/D
You're sweepin' up the floods and you've been vacuumin' the fires
        Em/C#                           Em/C          Bm7
And you lay down every night next to a goddamn liar
 
 
[Chorus]
    Em                       Em/D
You may be here today, but tomorrow, you're a ghost
            Em/C#                           Em/C
I guess the most someone can hope for is to find a place to lay
 
    Em                                    Em/D
Someone to tell your secrets to when the nights get long and blue
         Em/C#                            Em/C
Someone strong enough to lean on when the roses fall away
 
Em/C                                  Bm7
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
         Em/C                                 Bm7
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
 Em   Em/D  Em/C#  Em/C
Wrong
 
 
[Verse 3]
         Em                              Em/D
When the day is winding down, my heart abandons me for you
        Em/C#                         Em/C
You forgot yourself so long ago and I wish I could too
 
        Em                          Em/D
But you live inside a quiet hell no one can pray away
Em/C#                        Em/C                Bm7
Leavin' would be easy, I understand why you stay
 
 
[Chorus]
    Em                       Em/D
You may be here today, but tomorrow, you're a ghost
            Em/C#                           Em/C
I guess the most someone can hope for is to find a place to lay
 
    Em                                    Em/D
Someone to tell your secrets to when the nights get long and blue
         Em/C#                            Em/C
Someone strong enough to lean on when the roses fall away
 
Em/C                                  Bm7
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
         Em/C                                Bm7
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
 Em   Em/D  Em/C#  Em/C
Wrong
 
 
[Verse 4]
          Em                                 Em/D
You'd be wrong if you were thinkin' that we all don't fade away
     Em/C#                       Em/C
Like dew drops in the dawn, like sun beams through the haze
 
       Em                              Em/D
It's a long way to be sinkin', holdin' tightly to the weights
       Em/C#                            Em/C                  Bm7
Of the one who pulls you down while you slowly waste your days
 
 
[Chorus]
        Em/C                                  Bm7
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
         Em/C                                Bm7
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
 Em   Em/D  Em/C#  Em/C
Wrong
 
 
[Coda]
Em           Em/D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
            Em/C#   Em/C
When you're wrong
