[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Bm G D

He could see the storm clouds rollin' across the hill

F#m Bm7 G C/G G

He barely beat the rain in from the field

D D/F# G

And between the back door slamming she heard him say

Em Asus4 A

Damn this rain, and damn this wasted day

D D/F# G

But she'd been waiting for this day for oh so long

D A7sus4 A

She was standing in the kitchen with nothing but her apron on

A#dim Bm Bm/A G

And in disbelief he stood and he stared a while

D A7sus4

And when their eyes met, they both began to smile

[Chorus]

A G A D

Somewhere other than the night she needs to hear I love you

D/F# G A D A7/C#

Somewhere other than the night she needs to know you care

Bm Bm/A E/G# G D/F#

And she wants to know she's needed, and she needs to be held tight

Em7 A7 D G/B D A7sus4

Somewhere other than the night

[Verse 2]

Bm G D

They spent the day wrapped up in a blanket on the front porch swing

F#m Bm7 G C/G G

He'd come to realize he'd neglected certain things

D D/F# G

And there are times she feels alone even by his side

Em A7sus4 A

It was the first time she ever saw him cry

[Chorus]

A G A D

Somewhere other than the night she needs to hear I love you

D/F# G A D A7/C#

Somewhere other than the night she needs to know you care

Bm Bm/A E/G# G D/F#

And she wants to know she's needed, and she needs to be held tight

Em7 A7 D A7/C#

Somewhere other than the night

Bm Bm/A E/G# G

To know she's needed, and she needs to be held tight
