[Verse 1]
C# E
Street lights along the highway
B Am
Throwing shadows in the dark
C# E
And the memories keep on turning
B Am
To the rhythm of a broken heart
[Chorus]
C# E
You only need a roof when it’s raining
B Am
You only need a fire when it’s cold
C# E
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Bm Am
Is the only thing you have left to hold
C# E
Sun comes up and goes back down
B Am
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
C# E
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
B (C#.. Repeat Intro)
Baby, I will be your parachute
C E B Am

There’s a song that I remember

And a lifetime of forgotten words

I never got to say

You only need a roof when it’s raining
B Am
You only need a fire when it’s cold
C# E
You only need a drink when the whiskey
B Am
Is the only thing you have left to hold

Sun comes up and goes back down
B Am
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground

Say the word and I’ll be there for you

Baby, I will be your parachute
