~ This song is a *smidge* easier to play if you transpose -2 and use a capo on 2.
  (There are still plenty of barre chords either way.)


==INTRO==
D   G  (x4)


==VERSE==
D     G         D               G             D             G
I think it's getting to the point where I can be myself again 
        D               G                 D              G
It's getting to the point where we have almost made amends
D      G           Bm            Bb                 A         A7
I think it's the getting to the point that is the hardest part


==CHORUS==
            G               D
And if you call, I will answer
            G                  D
And if you fall, I'll pick you up
            G             D
And if you court this disaster
                A   A7                D     G     D      G
I'll point you home, I'll point you home


==VERSE==
D        G    D           G                  D                 G
You think I only think about you when we're both in the same room
     D           G               D              G
I'm only here to witness the remains of love exhumed
D       G        Bm             Bb                A           A7
You think we're here to play a game of who loves more than whom


==CHORUS==
            G               D
And if you call, I will answer
            G                  D
And if you fall, I'll pick you up
            G             Em
And if you court this disaster


==INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE==

Em (possibly E7)  (x8)   

G   D   F   G


==VERSE==
D       G        D          G                  D             G
You think it's only fair to do what's best for you and you alone
      D            G             D                    G
It's only fair to do the same to me when you're not home
D     G       Bm                 Bb               A              A7
I think it's time to make this something that is more than only fair


==CHORUS==
            G               D
And if you call, I will answer
            G                  D
And if you fall, I'll pick you up
            G             D
And if you court this disaster
                A   A7
I'll point you home


==BRIDGE/OUTRO==
          G                 Gm
But I'm warning you, don't ever do 
       D                Bm
Those crazy, messed-up things that you do
        G           Gm
If you ever do, I promise you 
     D                 Bm
I'll be the first to crucify you
          G                         Gm
Now it's time to prove that you've come back here 
        D       G        D        G
To rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, rebuild...
