[Intro]
C  Em  F  G
[Verse 1]
CYou were down when I Emmet you,
But deep Fin your eyes I could Gsee the sign
With a Cthousand drummers Emdrumming
And a Fhundred singers Gsinging songs of Emlove
EmWhatever they Dmknew about it, Emlove...
EmWhatever it Fmeant to them
[Verse 2]
So Cwe all met up Emafter school
And you Ftook us home inGto your room
CYou'd skip class and Emdrummed all day
So I Fput my books down and Gpicked up the camera..Em.
EmWas it you Dmthat I filmed? EmUpon...
Em____F??____
[Chorus]
CYou'd run
GAnd I'd follow
DmI'd stayed and Fyou'd gone
[Verse 3]
CShe was in ChiEmcago
Where the Fstreets are paved with Gall those names
Of our Cheros and our Emdreams we tried
But the Fhouse was razed and Gleft an empty Emlot
EmI know that you won't Dmcry about it, Emhiding...
EmHiding the tears Fin your eyes
[Chorus]
CYou'd run
GAnd I'd follow
DmI'd stayed and Fyou'd gone
[Outro]
CSo far
GIn late October
DmThe nights are darker without Fyou here
