Intro: A (hammer sus4) x2 

A (hammer sus4) 
If you need a friend 
                    F#m 
Don't look to a stranger 
                             D (hammer sus4) 
You know in the end, 
A 
I'll always be there 
But when you're in doubt 
And when you're in danger 
Take a look all around, and I'll be there 

Chorus: 
A 
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say 
 F#m 
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be 
         D                                     Dm 
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me 
A              E                          A 
I promise, I promise you I will 

When your day is through 
And so is your temper 
You know what to do 
I'm gonna always be there 
Sometimes if I shout 
It's not what's intended 
These words just come out 
With no gripe to bear 

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say 
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be 
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me 
I promise, I promise you I will 

Bridge: A F#m D A F#m D E 

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say 
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be 
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me 
I promise you, I promise you I will 

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say 
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be 
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me 
I promise, I promise you 

Finish on A
