We Go Way Back

Intro 
| C | C | F | F | 

 
C 
 Saw the world from up close 
                      F 
It ain't much to look at 

Compared to you and your work clothes 
                           C 
Waving hello from the driveway 

I can't make myself whole 
                                    F 
Most days, I'd be lucky just to get half 

But you've seen me in places so low 
                                 C 
You can recognise when it's real bad 
               F 
When it's real bad 
 

 
C 
  Used to hate the silence 
                                    F 
Used to make me think about the old days 

And all the miles in my legs 
                                 C 
The late flights and missed birthdays 

Out here I can hear your heartbeat 
                               F 
I can hear the start of a long sigh 

I can hear the song of the robin 
 

 
                                 Am7 
I haven't wrote my own in a long time 
              F 
And it's just fine 
 

 
       C               Em7 
'Cause I don't need my name back 
         F 
Throw my notebook in the basement 
      C 
Oh, I love you 
            Em7             F 
And I can't fake that for a moment 
F 
We go way back 
      {Am} {G} 
We go way back 
C                    Em7 
Tell me I don't need options 
            F 
That I have substance 

That I'm important 
        C                Em7 
If it's only for letting dogs out 
         F 
Sweeping porches 

To make me nothing 
        {Am}  {G}   F 
Take me way  back 
      {Am}  {G} 
We go way  back 
 

Interlude 
C   {Csus2}  F 

 
C 
 The little pebble marks on your car door 
                                 F 
The sound of your feet on the gravel 

Said I'm always tryna run from what I'm known for 
                                  C 
Baby, that's the thing about a shadow 

I've never seen the rain fall so hard 
                              F 
Honey, we're north of nowhere now 

Heaven is a drink in the backyard 
 

 
                            Am7 
As we watch the storm touch down 
                 F 
And it's pouring out 
 

 
    C               Em7 
And I don't need my name back 
         F 
Throw my notebook in the basement 
      C 
Oh, I love you 
            Em7             F 
And I can't fake that for a moment 
F 
We go way back 
      {Am} {G} 
We go way back 
C                    Em7 
Tell me I don't need options 
            F 
That I have substance 

That I'm important 
        C                Em7 
If it's only for letting dogs out 
         F 
Sweeping porches 

Well make me nothing 
        {Am}  {G}   F 
Take me way  back 
      {Am}  {G}   F 
We go way  back
