Count On Me

C  F  C  G

[Verse 1]
C                 F              C
Sometimes I throw a stone into the darkness
         F     G       C
Just to see what sound it makes
C                  F             C
I listen closely when it hits the surface
    Am            G             C
It says a little trust is all it takes
C                   F           C
Sometimes I light a candle in the darkness
 F                   G          C
I watch the shadows dancing on the wall
     C            F        C
And now it’s up to my imagination
Am              G                 C
What it is I’m making of it all

[Chorus]
      F           G       C
No matter how many turns a river makes
Dm      G                   C          E
It will always meet the sea
       F          E       Am      D7
No matter how many times a promise breaks
F      G              Am
You can always count on me
                 D7
As time will go by you’ll see
Dm7    G              C
You can always count on me

[Verse 2]
C                     F           C
Sometimes I look for guidance in the darkness
  F               G                C
To find the hidden path that takes me home
    C               F            C
But by the time I’ve come around full circle
     Am                G               C
I’m off again to make it on my own

[Chorus]
      F           G       C
No matter how many turns a river makes
Dm      G                   C          E
It will always meet the sea
       F          E       Am      D7
No matter how many times a promise breaks
F      G              Am
You can always count on me
                 D7        Dm7      G              Am
As time will go by you’ll see, you can always count on me

[Verse 3]
 C                  Bb           A
The great escape has only just begun
              D7
But darling, I hope you’ll see
Dm7     G            C
You can always count on me

[Verse 4]
C                 F               C
Sometimes I like the solitude in darkness
   F               G           C
The time before the waking of the sun
C                 F            C
But when I find you walking there beside me
         Am              G            C
I know the breaking of the dawn will have begun

[Chorus]
      F           G       C
No matter how many turns a river makes
Dm      G                   C          E
It will always meet the sea
       F          E       Am      D7
No matter how many times a promise breaks
F      G              Am
You can always count on me
                 D7
As time will go by you’ll see
Dm7    G              C
You can always count on me
