Beautiful, simple song.
Capo 2.
GThis is your number
CIts all I've got
EmThis is me standing in a Dparking lot

CThat never got made
EmThis is my heart and iDts a grenade
GPulling the pin
CRunnin' for cover 
EmIn the Dmiddle of the night
GPick up the phone
CI wanna come oEmverD  
GBack in the day 
Cwalking your way
EmIf You read my mind you knDew what I'd say
GFoot In my mouth
CCat got my tongue
EmTripping on clichés and cDoming undone
GHolding your head

GTell me your name
CCan I come over?Em  D

EmI'd follow your lGove down a Ddead end street
CI would live life Gblind
CI would tell you lEmies
GJust to hear your Cvoice when I Dclose my Geyes
GAfter the dance
CAfter the whiskey
EmAfter you left Dbefore you kissed me
GToo much to drink
CStumbling home
EmNobody there when the Dlights came on

CCounting my blessings
