Street lights along the highway

Throwing shadows in the dark

And the memories keep on turning

To the rhythm of a broken heart

You only need a roof when it's raining
D C
You only need a fire when it's cold
Em G
You only need a drink when the whiskey
D C
Is the only thing you have left to hold
Em G
Sun comes up and goes back down
D C
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Em G
Say the word and I'll be there for you
D
Baby, I will be your parachute
