B7                                     C                           G                    Em 
And the headlights on the highway cannot help me understand 
C                            D 
Whatever it is you need 
             G 
I pray I am 



Em           G                     D 
You wear nothing but a smile 
                    Em               
A nervous laughter 
                     C                        G                        D 
Spend the evenings in your dark blue cotton sheets 


Em                 G                                 D                           Em 
And I spent years it seems just wandering through the darkness 
                     C                     G                         D 
Then the answer came on that late summer breeze 


B7                                     C                           G                    Em 
And the headlights on the highway cannot help me understand 
C                            D 
Whatever it is you need 
             G 
I pray I am 


Em         G                  D                           Em 
With my fingertips I trace on your bare skin 
                 C                     G                         D 
All of the things I'd like to say but cannot speak 



Em           G                     
You mean everything 
                  D                      Em 
There're not quite words enough to tell you 
  C                     G                         D 
All the things that you've become for me 


B7                                     C                           G                    Em 
And the headlights on the highway cannot help me understand 
C                            D 
Whatever it is you need 
             G 
I pray I am 


Bridge-Eminor D, G, C, Eminor, G, D  
Em              D                       
And I don't need no secrets 
G                  C 
I give up on lies 
Em            G                  D (strum once) 
If it's gonna rain I'd rather know then be caught blind 



B7                                     C                           G                    Em 
And the headlights on the highway cannot help me understand 
C                            D 
Whatever it is you need 
             G 
I pray I am (2x)
