[Intro 1]
[Am][F][G][Am][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Ill shed
some [F]light on the mys[G]tery
Of why I kicked her [Am]out on
Inde[F]pendence [G]Day
With [Am]the fireworks [F]burning
[G]I found myself learning
Couldn't [Am]lay in my
[F]bed [G]the same way
[Am]Stand [F]by [G]me that's what
[Am]she said if [F]the shit hit the fan
[G]Would you stand by me
[Am]Stand [F]by [G]me
Well, here I [F]am[Dm][F]

[Interlude 1]
Here I am
[G][Am][G][Am][F][G][Am][F]
[G][Am][F][G][Am]
[F][G][Am]
6 o'c[F]lock in the city

[Verse 2]
[G]
The shade was fighting [Am]back
with [F]the morning sun
[G]Then the ala[Am]rm started rin[F]gin'
Her [G]curls fell round her
She [Am]asked me when [F]the buses [G]run
And [Am]the phones been
[F]ringing since [G]Monday
Shes looking for a [Am]place where
she can [F]talk all [G]alone
But here I [F]am
Here I am
[Gsus4][G]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]
I know your [Am]tricks, your magic
But I [G]don't know what your
truth is [F]about[Dm]
If you paint the day[Am]light tragic
[G]You're never gonna figure it [F]out

[Interlude 2]
Out
[F][Am][F][G][Am][F]
[G]

[Verse 4]
[Am]From a cha[F]ir in the kitchen[G]
I watched her live [Am]her life in a
[F]batting [G]cage
Swingin' [Am]through jobs,
through her [F]family
Then it [G]hit me, it grabbed me
Shes [Am]winding up like [F]Satchel [G]Page
And I could [Am]hear the crash
[F]of the firewor[G]ks
Bringing in the [Am]light through
[F]the windows and [G]doors

[Verse 5]
It lit a little [Am]matchbox [F]found
in the kit[G]chen
I read the name and [Am]number
and [F]I fell on [G]the floor
But here I [F]am
Here I am
Here I am
[G]

[Verse 6]
[Dm]
I know your [Am]tricks, your magic
Now I [G]know just what your
truth is [F]about[Dm]
If you paint the day[Am]light tragic
[G]You're never gonna figure it [F]out

[Verse 7]
Out
[Am]
[F]Stand by [G]me
That's what you said
[Am]You said you'd[F] stand by me[G][Am]
[F]Stand by [G]me
Here I [F]am
Here I am
[G][Am]
