feat. John Legend

Emaj
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             Aadd9
Right there, right next to you.
And it’s hard the days just seem so dark,
The moon, and the stars
Are nothing without you.
     Emaj
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      Aadd9
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

 F#m              A            C#m
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 B         F#m           A
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               E/B  B9sus4
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         E              C#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             F#m7 A    Asus2 A
     Next to you, you?
         E                   C#m
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       F#m7
     I’ll take care of you,
           A
     And I don’t want to be here
        B9sus4            E
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    Emaj
I’m reaching out to you,
              Aadd9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     Emaj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    Aadd9        B9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         E        G#m/D# C#m
     Can I lay by your side,
             F#m7    A
     Next to you, to you?
         E                G#m/D# C#m
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       F#m7
     I’ll take care of you,
           A
     And I don’t want to be here
        B9sus4             F#m
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Instrumental: F#m | F#m/A | Dmaj | B7sus2

F#m    F#m/A  Dmaj   B7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
F#m    F#m/A   Dmaj  B7sus2
Lay me by your side.
F#m    F#m/A  Dmaj   B7sus2
Lay me down tonight,
F#m    F#m7/A  B9sus4
Lay me by your side.
    E              C#m
Can I lay by your side,
        F#m7 Aadd9 B9sus4 E
Next to you, you?
