[verse]
G         C             G         C
I haven’t seen you in a long time
G       C                   G         C
I never know where you will be
G         C             G         C
If you’re ever feeling anxious
G       C                   G         C
You can always come home to me

[verse]
G       C               G         C
You are bigger than I remember
G        C                  G         C
Is there something I should know?
G         C                 G         C
I haven’t seen you since December
G           C                 G         C
I guess I’d love to watch you grow.

[chorus]
G                           Am
But I don’t know if you are ready.
D                       G
I don’t know if you’re aware
Em                       Am
If I could only keep you steady
D                        G C G
If I could only keep you here

[verse]
G        C             G         C
You were hoping to be grounded
G        C                G         C
You were looking for some sleep
G        C                  G         C
All your life you have been hounded
G              C                   G    C  
There are some secrets you have to keep.

[chorus]
G                           Am
But I don’t know if you are ready.
D                       G
I don’t know if you’re aware
Em                       Am
If I could only keep you steady
D                        G C 
If I could only keep you here

[bridge]
D                  C
You know I’d never judge you
D                    C
You know I know your past
D                  C
If I could just convince you
D                      G C G   
That some things can last

[verse]
G          C          G         C
You have a curious attraction
G       C               G         C
For the distant and the strange
G       C              G         C
You are living for distraction
G       C           G         C
You are dying for a change

[chorus]
G                           Am
But I don’t know if you are ready.
D                       G
I don’t know if you’re aware
Em                       Am
If I could only keep you steady
D                        G C 
If I could only keep you here

[bridge]
D                  C
You know I’d never judge you
D                    C
You know I know your past
D                  C
If I could just convince you
D                      G C G   
That some things can last

[bridge]
D                  C
You know I’d never judge you
D                    C
You know I know your past
D                  C
If I could just convince you
D                      G C G   
That some things can last

[verse]
G         C             G         C
I haven’t seen you in a long time
G       C                   G         C
I never know where you will be
G         C             G         C
If you’re ever feeling anxious
G       C                   G
You can always come home to me
