The Shape

G D Dsus4 D  C G


[Verse 1]
               G
Well I’m in pretty good shape for the shape I’m in
  D
Living in the shadows of all my sins
      C                         G
But hey, we’ve all got our problems
              G
And it’s been 21 hours since I’ve heard your voice
    D
And Me, well I got no damn choice
          C                            G
In the matter, yeah you know that’s true
        G
Yeah leave it all up to you this time
        D                               C
The decision is yours baby, it's not mine
                    G
Even though that’s hard
         G
But the ink stain is still on my hand
            D
And your number’s too worn off to understand
        C                     G
But I wear it, like a battle scar


[Chorus]
              C                G
And I can’t tell, about you and me
                    D                      B7            C
It’s a little bit too far down that old road of life to see
              G           D
But I keep an eye out, toward the sky
                 B7             C
Thinkin' that maybe you just might be passin’ by
           G                   D
And how I wish, that you can hear, me sing
             B7                       C
Maybe this time my songs just might mean something


[Bridge]
     Am                 C     Am                 C
So fall on back down to me, fall on back down to me
                     Am   C                       G
Ah you’re still an angel, even with that broken wing

[Verse 2]
              G
And I said I got enough gas to make it there
    D
Tonight if you want, baby I don’t care
     C                              G
And you said no, no, no, no, that’s ok
       G
So instead I just sat here on this couch
      D
And I drank it off, that’s what I’m all about
   C                                    G
At least Lord, that’s what the people say
       G
Cuz we both know I'm just a lost cause
    D                              C                    G
A wannabe poet with a cheap guitar, beggin' for applause
        G
But I thought I'd be your knight in shinin' armor
      D
And I'd save ya, hell or high water
    C                                          G
But I won't reach out my hand if you don’t want it

No, no, no


[Chorus]

              C                G
And I can’t tell, about you and me
                    D                      B7            C
It’s a little bit too far down that old road of life to see
              G           D
But I keep an eye out, toward the sky
                 B7             C
Thinkin' that maybe you just might be passin’ by
           G                   D
And how I wish, that you can hear, me sing
             B7                       C
Maybe this time my songs just might mean something


[Otro]

 Am                 C        Am                 C
So fall on back down to me, fall on back down to me
                     Am  C
Ah you’re still an angel
                    Am   C
Ah you’re still an angel
                    Am   C
Ah you’re still an angel
      C                       G
Well even with that broken wing
