Tupelo, Mississippi
G               D
Somewhere in a dream 
Em           G
Feeling you, missing me 
Em            G        Asus2
Lost out here on the wind  

D
That keeps moving me 
G              D
Down the white line 
Em          G
Imagining looking back 
Em                  G       Asus2
Hoping that you’re all I see  

G                     D
With all your heart tonight 
G                        D
There’s nothing they can’t see 
G                          D            Asus2
There’s nothing they can’t feel you and me 
G                     D
I’m a room without a roof 
G                     D
Walls that don’t tell time 
G                D     hold a G chord but walk up bass notes from E to F# to G     
Forever I’ll be waiting here for you… patiently  


Some say I’ve wasted 
All that time can give 
Criticizing, analyzing 
everything that’s put in front of me  

Stayed too long at your table 
Waited jealously 
Spiked the punch and broke your heart 
All the while not knowing who to be  

With all your heart tonight
There’s nothing they can’t see 
There’s nothing they can’t feel you and me 
I’m a room without a roof 
And walls that don’t tell time 
Forever I’ll be waiting here for you… patiently 

jam uses the same chord progression 

And you don’t need me 
I’ll only get in the way 
Lonely nights and bar room sights 
Lost out in the neon endlessly  

Promise you the world 
I’ve tried everything 
To give you stars and anything 
you ever need to get back to the world 

With all your heart tonight
There’s nothing they can’t see 
There’s nothing they can’t feel you and me 
I’m a room without a roof 
And walls that don’t tell time 
Forever I’ll be waiting here for you for you....for you.
