Came On Lion

Tom: C

C             Am 
closer than a girl can get 
     G             F 
to trouble if she hasn't yet 
         (walk down) 
gotten it 
 
 
         C             Am 
well it started out like any show 
G                        F 
up from the dark to the lights warm glow 
    C                 Am 
and did you hear that dedication 
     G                 F 
when I stepped up and out on stage and 
     C            Am 
you came on lion, all courageous, 
    G            F 
and I stepped up to your cage 
C              Am 
just to see if we would go 
  G                   F 
across the bridge I thought you'd know 
 
 
             C           Am 
and now the sun is up already hot 
      G              F 
with two rays onto straying thoughts 
     C                Am 
and each one warms to make me glow 
     G             F 
or burn me if I'm not careful 
     C             Am 
and it's not hard, it's too easy, 
G             F 
I get it, and I get to be 
C             Am 
closer than a girl can get 
     G             F 
to trouble if she hasn't yet gotten it 
 
(musical interlude:  C  Am  G  F  X2) 
 
 
 
 
           C              Am 
so now can I step lightly back between 
G                   F 
where you are and where I've been 
C               Am 
back into that thing we do 
G                  F 
where it's me and it's just you 
     C             Am 
and it's not hard, it's too easy 
G             F 
I get in, and I get to be 
C             Am 
closer than a girl can get 
     G              F 
to trouble without getting in it.
