You Go First

Dm                        Em
We are partners, we are a team
  Dm                              
Together we'll have everything we 
C
dream
                  Dm
If we combine our efforts
                         G
there's nothing we can't do
Dm                           G
You'll support me, but first I'll 
support you

Dm                         Em
For now we'll go after the things 
that you need
  Dm                  G
A single objective to help you 
succeed
Dm
Because I'm as important to you
Am
as you are to me
    Dm               G
I'll get what I need eventually


[Chorus]

    Dm  C  Am
But you go first
    F
And I'll take the rest
            Dm  C    Am          
And it will all work out for the 
G
best


[Verse 2]

Dm                             Em
I have patience because I understand
 you
        Dm                    C
And can wait to do all of the things
 that I planned to
    Dm                        
But what is that elusive thing 
        G
you'll earn

               Dm              G
That makes you finally realize it's 
my turn

Dm                           
Am I fooling myself that we're 
  Em
really united
    Dm                    G
The love is there but the respect 
unrequited
Dm
I am your anchor
Am
do I just hold you in place
Dm                          G
The eye of your storm, am I just 
empty space


[Chorus]

    Dm  C  Am
But you go first
    F
And I'll take the rest
            Dm  C    Am          
And it will all work out for the 
G
best


[Bridge]


Dm                    Em
You know an object at rest stays at 
rest
G                          Am
You can't have inertia with things 
unexpressed
       Dm
By the time I knew politeness
        F
Was the opposite of brilliance
    G
I'd spent my resources
    E7
And lost my resilience
D                            F
Without me you pick up where you 
left off
D                            G
Without you I'm back where I started


[Chorus]

    Dm  C  Am
But you go first
    F
And I'll take the rest
            Dm  C    Am          
And it will all work out for the 
G
best


[Verse 3]

Dm                         F
I know you didn't consciously 
deceive
    Dm                   F
And neither did I when I chose to 
believe
G
But now I am stuck in a place I 
can't leave
F
While I watch you achieve and
G
achieve and achieve

Dm                                
I guess maybe I knew how much you 
      Em
would cost
                 Dm          
That when I said yes that I'd 
         C
already lost
               Dm
But now I'm so tired and
                G
not sure how to pursue it
Dm                              G
And I don't have a partner like me
           C
to help me do it
