The Nights

INTRO:
Em  D  Cmaj7


VERSE:
       Em                      D
I can still hear the gravel on my truck tires, down the drive
                Cmaj7
You were in the passenger seat and we were both crying

 Em                           D
Holding hands at the airport, I was dropping you off
Cmaj7
Left you in a ticket line, for the last time

Em             D                      Cmaj7
  It’s almost like you were never here     (You were never. never here)
Em            D                    Cmaj7
  Now it’s a sip, a hit, and I disappear


CHORUS:
                           Em                          D
But it gets me though the nights, gets me through the days
                    Cmaj7
Gets me through the memories I can’t escape

                Em                         D
Gets me to the light, gets me through the pain
                         Cmaj7
‘Cause if I can’t get to you, what’s the point anyway

                      Em                            D
Might run me off the tracks, might drown me in the waves
                      Cmaj7
Might make me lose my mind, might send me to grave

                            Em                          D
But it gets me through the nights, gets me through the days
                    Cmaj7
Gets me through the memories I can’t escape

                        Em   D  Cmaj7
It gets me through the nights


VERSE:
Em                                 D
Now it’s been a year, it’s pretty clear I’m not over you
Cmaj7
Could say it’s all good and cool, but we both know that ain’t true (that ain't true)

Em                                D
You see me acting a fool in this shit I post, you know most
Cmaj7
That I’m a fraud and that ain’t me


CHORUS:
                           Em                          D
But it gets me though the nights, gets me through the days
                    Cmaj7
Gets me through the memories I can’t escape

                Em                         D
Gets me to the light, gets me through the pain
                         Cmaj7
‘Cause if I can’t get to you, what’s the point anyway

                      Em                            D
Might run me off the tracks, might drown me in the waves
                      Cmaj7
Might make me lose my mind, might send me to grave

                            Em                          D
But it gets me through the nights, gets me through the days
                    Cmaj7
Gets me through the memories I can’t escape

                        Em   D  Cmaj7
It gets me through the nights

                         Em    D  Cmaj7
(It gets me through the nights)


BDA K:
Em
This’ll be my last shot, reaching out
  D
‘Cause I know you’re through
     Cmaj7
But P.S.   I still love you


CHORUS:
                           Em                          D
And it gets me though the nights, gets me through the days
                    Cmaj7
Gets me through the memories I can’t escape

                Em                         D
Gets me to the light, gets me through the pain
                         Cmaj7
‘Cause if I can’t get to you, what’s the point anyway

                      Em                            D
Might run me off the tracks, might drown me in the waves
                      Cmaj7
Might make me lose my mind, might send me to grave

                            Em                          D
But it gets me through the nights, gets me through the days
                    Cmaj7
Gets me through the memories I can’t escape

                        Em   D  Cmaj7
It gets me through the nights
