Whatever You Need

 
E 
I waited out front while you picked up the weed 
        A 
At that all night tattoo place on East 17th 
E 
None of us tethered to home or to love 
     A 
Just shots in the dark chasing all the above 
 

 
E                     A 
How can I be what you need 
                   E 
How can I take the weight 
                 A 
And let you walk free? 
                
Let me be your alibi 
               A 
Let me be your place to cry 
             E       A 
Whatever you need 
 

 
E 
You called from the hospital, said that youre fine 
      A 
Got a whole lot of friends talking bout the old times 
    E 
You sit in the hall, they all sing along 
A 
Every word of that Mabel Gray song 
 

 
E                     A 
How can I be what you need 
                   E 
How can I take the weight 
                 A 
And let you walk free? 
                
Let me be your alibi 
               A 
Let me be your place to cry 
             E 
Whatever you need 
 

 
    C#m                       
And I know that Ive been an asshole to you 
        A                               F#m 
All the late nights, the gaslights that I cant undo 
C#m              
History pooling around me 
                  A 
I cant touch the bottom 
                E 
Smoke em if you got em 
 

 
E                     A 
How can I be what you need 
                   E 
How can I take the weight 
                 A 
And let you walk free? 
                
Let me be your alibi 
               A 
Let me be your place to cry 
             E 
Whatever you need 
         F#m 
Whatever you need 
         G# 
Whatever you need 
         A     E 
Whatever youuuu need
