  			              C          F 
You don't have to be so scared 
              Am         G 
You don't have to leave tonight 
           C            F 
I just need to hold on tight 
                   Am 
For one hell of a ride 
           C              F 
And we lost in all just now 
             Am               G 
To the nights that left you out 
            C         F 
So we'll let this go somehow 
                      Am        G 
But you're gonna be proud       so proud 

                     C        
And I just needed you to lift me up 
          F 
Like you did when we were younger 
          Am 
When the lightening and the thunder 
        G 
Had me clinging to your heart 
For someone 
C 
To lift me up 
          F 
When I'm down and I'm forgotten 
       Am 
You'll forever be my father 
            G 
And I'll be saving tears in jars for this one 

        C               F 
How can I fit all these words 
     Am            G 
Into such a simple verse 
         C                    F 
It's the last time that we'll speak 
             C   G 
So listen to me, please 

                   C 
And I just needed you to lift me up 
         F 
Like you did when we were younger 
          Am 
When the lightening and the thunder 
        G 
Had me clinging to your heart 
For someone 
C 
To life me up 
          F 
When I'm down and I'm forgotten 
       Am 
You'll forever be my father 
            G 
I'll be saving tears in jars for this one 

                  C                   F          Am      G 
And I just needed you to life me up - Whoa oh oh oh oh oh (2x) 
                  C 
And I just needed you to lift me up 
         F 
Like you did when we were younger 
          Am 
When the lightening and the thunder 
        G 
Had me clinging to your heart 
For someone 
C 
To lift me up 
          F 
When I'm down and I'm forgotten 
       Am 
You'll forever be my father 
            G 
I'll be saving tears in jars for this one 

        C                   F 
Did you know that you're my heart 
                Am 
And it hurts to be apart 
         C               F 
And this cut it hurts so deep 
              Am      G      C 
So sing me to sleep
