how they play this song. Look both videos up if you want more detail. Also
tuning is very playful so find variations or add notes to these chords if
you like, for example notes in brackets [eg. (4)] are ones I play but the
string can be left open also.


Tuning: DGDGBD  Capo 5th

INTRO/PRE-VERSES:
   Each shape represents roughly one up and down strum

*The chords he uses for the little Sade "By Your Side" outro are his intro
ones, and after he says "holdin you..." he plays a variation, like 055040*

LYRICS (bit different than album version)

I could roll you to hell like you swam from your heavens
I could drive you so safe, I could walk you to here (heal?)
Let us float in the tears let us cry from the laughter
But it's not for some sake and the city's not near

And now you're going back, you're going back, you're going back

But I hope you could hear all the screams from the fall (fog?)
All the ghosts in the trees and the love of a doe (dog?)
Let us float in the tears let us cry from the laughters
When it's not for some sake and the city's not near

But now you're going back, you're going back, you're going back

You said, "Driver, please, don't go that f**kin way"
You said, "Just let it go away", you said, "Just let it go"

I could roll you to hell like you swam from your heavens               
I could drive you so safe I could walk you to here
But you dry me to tears like I cry from your laughter
And it's not for some sake and the city's just near

And now you're going back, you're going back, you're going back

Oh now you're going back

...(transitions to By Your Side)

You think I'd leave your side baby; you know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees; 
I wouldn't do that
Oh when you're cold, I'll be there, holdin you tight to me
