Tom: F#m
Bm A F#m Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm A F#m
Caroline we met, in somber silence
Bm
Oh, but it was over my head at the time
Bm A F#m
Illinois so cold, at this time of year
Bm
But it’s your home forever
Bm A F#m Bm
[Verse 2]
Bm A F#m
All along this road, I feel your presence
Bm
Oh I feel all the repercussions moving on
Bm A F#m
In my home you live, in all the lessons
Bm
Of a man unbroken
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
And I got no way to convey
A
What I’m going through
[Chorus]
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
All the ways that I need you
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
Oh, no
[Verse 2]
Bm A F#m
1981, a shift in the tone
Bm
A fractured line in the side, near invisible
Bm A F#m
Signifies your touch, and lingers with us
Bm
It’s all we have lost and learned from
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
And I got no way to convey
A
What I’m going through
[Chorus]
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
All the ways that I need you
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
Oh, no
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
All the ways that I need you
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
Oh, no
Bm A x2
Bm F#m
As I fade
Bm F#m
As I fade,
Bm F#m
Will you save me
Bm F#m
As I fade
Bm F#m
As I fade,
Bm F#m
Will you save me
[Chorus]
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
All the ways that I need you
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
Bm
All the ways that I need you
Bm A F#m
I can’t explain, I can’t explain
