E|------------------|
[Verse 1]
Em C
I found God
G D
On the corner of First and Amistad
Em C
Where the west
G D
Was all but won
Em C
All alone
G D
Smoking his last cigarette
Em C
I said, “Where you been?”
G D
He said, “Ask anything.”
[Verse 2]
Em
Where were you
D C
When everything was falling apart?
Em
All my days
D C
Were spent by the telephone
Em
That never rang
D C
And all I needed was a call
Em
It never came
D C
To the corner of First and Amistad
[Chorus]
Em C
Lost and insecure
G D
You found me, you found me
Em C
Lying on the floor
G D
Surrounded, surrounded
Em C
Why’d you have to wait?
G D
Where were you, where were you?
Em C
Just a little late
G D
You found me, you found me
[Verse 3]
Em
In the end
D C
Everyone ends up alone
Em
Losing her
D C
The only one who’s ever known
Em
Who I am
D C
Who I’m not, and who I want to be
Em
No way to know
D C
How long she will be next to me
[Chorus]
Em C
Lost and insecure
G D
You found me, you found me
Em C
Lying on the floor
G D
Surrounded, surrounded
Em C
Why’d you have to wait?
G D
Where were you, where were you?
Em C
Just a little late
G D
You found me, you found me

D
Early morning
C
The city breaks
D
I’ve been calling
C
For years and years and years and years
D
And you never left me no messages
C
You never sent me no letters
D
You got some kind of nerve
C
Taking all I want
[Chorus]
Em C
Lost and insecure
G D
You found me, you found me
Em C
Lying on the floor
G D
Surrounded, surrounded
Em C
Why’d you have to wait?
G D
Where were you, where were you?
Em C
Just a little late
G D
You found me, you found me
Em
