Familiar Love

Capo 3

[Intro]
G                       D                       C                       G

[Verse One]
G                       D                       C                       G
It was late Halloween evening when I got into town
G                       D                       C                       G
New place with new walls, and a call from you
G                       D                       C                       G
After nine months and three weeks of being down
G                       D                       C                       G
All I could do was think of you

[Chorus]
Am                      D
I'm feeling; and I'm thinking; and I'm allowing
Am                      D
For your love, to fill me up again

(bouncy)
G                       C                       G
And it all comes back to you,
C                       G
And all my feelings fade from blue
C                       G
And all this time I've been alone,
C                       D                       G
Baby you just feel like home to me

[Verse Two]
G                       D                       C                       G
You look at the clock and say, "You know I need to go"
G                       D                       C                       G
But I just hold you down and beg you not to go
G                       D                       C                       G
After an hour or so, she was here for way too long
G                       D                       C                       G
It's a beautiful day to a lonely night, and I sleep alone

[Chorus]
Am                      D
I'm feeling; and I'm thinking; and I'm allowing
Am                      D
For your love, to fill me up again

(bouncy)
G                       C                       G
And it all comes back to you,
C                       G
And all my feelings fade from blue
C                       G
And all this time I've been alone,
C                       D                       G
Baby you just feel like home to me

[Verse Three]
G                       D                       C                       G
A familiar love is a hard love to lose
G                       D                       C                       G
Supposing we're friends but I can't stop holding you
G                       D                       C                       G
After the world stands still when the second act begins
G                       D                       C                       G
No calls, my world silent once again

[Chorus (Past Tense, Slow)]
Am                      D
I'm feeling; and I'm thinking; and I'm allowing
Am                      D
For your love, to fill me up again

(bouncy)
G                       C                       G
And it all comes back to you,
C                       G
And all my feelings fade from blue
C                       G
And all this time I've been alone,
C                       D                       G
Baby you just feel like home to me
