 EmaddC x2
 Feeling  my hands start  shaking Hearing your  voice  I'm overjoyed
  I'm sorry  but I  have no  choice You're  only getting bitter
  Maybe  you have your  reasons Maybe  you're scared  you'll be let down
  Are you crying  when  there's  no one around?
 Then maybe,  maybe if  you hold  me, baby, let me come over
  I will tell  you secrets  nobody  knows
  I can not overstate  it  I will be overjoyed
 That smile  on your  face like summer
  The  way that your hand keeps  touching mine
  Let me be  the one to  make it right
 And maybe, maybe  let  me hold  you, baby, let me come over
  I will tell  you secrets nobody  knows
  I can not overstate  it I  will be overjoyed
 And  if you want  we'll share  this life
  Anytime  you need a friend I'm  gonna be by your side
  When nobody understands  you... well  I do
 (High e string not played while drums are stopped)
 So maybe  let me hold you, baby, let me come over
  I will tell  you secrets God  only knows
  I can not overstate  it I  will be overjoyed
  Baby, let  me come over I  will tell you secrets
  Nobody  knows I can not overstate  it  I will be overjoyed
  Well  I will be overjoyed  Well  I will be overjoyed
