[D][A][D][F#m][G][D][F#m][G]
[A]

[Verse 1]
On a [Dm]hot self tree summer,
steam just [Bb]lies above them trees
You gotta [F]stay inside and wait for the night
and then [C]come on over to see me
And there's a [Dm]poetry about these streets and [Bb]skips through the skin,
goes right underneath
And [F]momma always knew I need a girl like you,
to [C]me I never believed

[Verse 2]
'Cause I've been [Dm]so lonely,
I can[C]'t imagine not come and [Bb]stay with [C]me
'Cause I've been [Dm]so lonely,
I can[C]'t imagine not come and [Bb]stay with [C]me
Where did you get them [D]scars?
How blue is [Bm]your heart?
Is it [G]sad enough to break? She said
[D]it's sad enough [A]to break
How long was [D]your life?
Was it [Bm]cold and strange like mine? Are
you [G]man enough to lay here?
She said I'm [D]man enough, [A]my baby,
come see [D]about [A]me

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][D][A][F#m][G][D][F#m][G][A]

[Verse 3]
Had a [Dm]dream about you once,
I can [Bb]barely see your form
And [F]I met you between the wax and the needle
and [C]the words of my favorite song
And your [Dm]black hair was like a raven
to your [Bb]tanned skin over the beach
And your [F]back drop were the auroras
[Dm]and my s[C]ide kick was all discrete

[Verse 4]
And I've been [Dm]so locked down,
I've been [C]long lost level on [Bb]the ground[C]
Where did you get them [D]scars?
How blue is [Bm]your heart?
Is [G]it sad enough to break? She said
[D]it's sad enough [A]to break
How long was [D]your life?
Was it [Bm]cold and strange like mine? Are
[G]you man enough to lay here?
She said I'm [D]man enough, [A]my baby,
come see [D]about me

[Interlude 2]
[D][Bm][A][D][Bm][A]

[Verse 5]
Did they [D]take you to the carnival
to get [Bm]locked up on [A]a ride?
[D]Me, I got caught up with the fortune tellers
and the [Bm]ladies with the sleepy [A]eyes
It took [G]years, my baby, [A]just to come clean,
every [Bm]street light a [G]reminder
And [A]all those [Bm]apologies [G]and the night
was [A]lonely next [Bm]to mean
Even the [G]night was [A]lonely next to me
[D]

[Verse 6]
Where did you get them scars?
How blue is [Bm]your heart?
Is it [G]sad enough to break? She said
[D]it's sad enough [A]to break
How long was [D]your life?
Was it [Bm]cold and strange like mine? Are
you [G]man enough to lay here?
She said [D]I'm man enough, [A]my baby,
come see [D]about me
[Bm]

[Verse 7]
Come see [G]about me, [D]come [A]see abo[Bm]ut me,[G] come see abo[D]ut me,
[A]come see[Bb] abo[Bm]ut me,[G] come see abou[D]t me[A]
[Bb]Whenever you're lonely
[D]
