[Verse 1]
GWhen I'm lost in a strange placeBm  
Scared and alone
When I'm Cwishing for home
GThat's when I think of you
EmWhen the load gets too heavyBm  
Too much to bear
When I'm Cgoing nowhere
There's no one there
And I'm Dsus4feeling like a Dfool
[Chorus 1]
GThat's when I think of you
It's aAll that I can do
I'd go mCad if it wasn't for yGou
[Verse 2]
GWhen I'm caught in the crossfireBm  
Of wrongs making right
When I wCake in the night
GThat's when I think of youEm  
When I'm halfway to heaven
BmWith three parts of hell
And it's aCll just as well
That I can't even tell
And I'm loDsus4st without a Dclue
[Chorus 2]
GThat's when I think of you
It's aAll that I can do
I'd go mCad if it wasn't for yGou
If not for the thoEmught of you
The promise of dreAams come true
I'd go mCad if it wasn't for you
