Tom: Dm
Em C Em C
[Verse 1]
Em
Could it be I was the one
C
That you held so deep in the night?
Em
On the back staircase
C
You fell to your knees with tears in your eyes
A
All that you suffered, all the disease
C
You couldn't hide it, hide it from me
[Verse 2]
Em
All alone, scared in your room
C
Would you swear there's nobody home?
Em
On the bed, laying awake
C
As you prayed he'd leave you alone
A C
I'll let the darkness swallow me whole
A C
I need to find you, need you to know
[Chorus 1]
Em C A
I'll be your friend in the daylight again
Em C A
There we will be, like an old enemy
C
Like the salt and the sea
[Instrumental]
Em C
[Verse 3]
Em
And they wrote all these prescriptions
C
They wrote me off like a heel
Em
Yeah, the doctors with their medicine
C
Left me to rock in my filth
A C
From the destruction, out of the flame
A C
You need a villain, give me a name
[Chorus 2]
Em C A
I'll be your friend in the daylight again
Em C A
There we will be, like an old enemy
Em C A
I'll be your friend in the daylight again
Em C A
There we will be, like an old enemy
C
Like the salt and the sea
C
Like the salt and the sea
[Outro]
Em C A C
