Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  was on your porch,  the smoke  sank into  my skin
 so i came inside  to be with
  you
and  we talked all night, about  everything  we could imagine
 cause come the morning  ill be gone  and
as  our eyes start to close  i turn  to you and i let you know
 that i Love you
 VERSE 2 SAME AS VERSE 1
 well my dad was sick and my mom she cared for him her love it
 nursed him back to life and me i ran, i couldnt even
 Look at him for fear id have to say goodbye and as i start to leave he grabs me
 by the shoulder and he tells me: (FROM THE Dm-B )
 whats left To lose,  youve done enough  and if you fail  well then you fail but
 not to us  cause these last three years,  i know theyve been
Hard  but now its time  to get out of the desert and into the sun
 even if its alone ( to INTRO THEN ANOTHER VERSE)
  so now here i sit, in a hotel off of
 Sunset my thoughts bounce off of sams guitar,
 and thats the way its been, ever since we were kids but now,
 now weve got something to prove
 and i, i can see there eyes but tell me something, can they see mine?
 cause whats left to lose,  ive done enough  and if i fail  well then i fail
   etc
 but i gave it a shot
 and these last three years, i know theyve been hard
 but now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun
 even if its alone oh  even if its alone oh
 even if its alone
i  was on your porch  last nite, the  smoke it sank  into my
Skin
