E
People love you like a diamond in their hands
DAE
They don’t know that diamond like I do
E
They put you up in the bluebird sky
ABE
Until they lose sight of you
BAE
People love you like a diamond in their hands
E
I always wanted to chase you down
DAE
And like many I fell in love with you
E
When you gave your heart back to me
ABE
I didn’t know what to do
BAE
I always wanted to chase you down
E
Carry me carry me
DAE
Back to your heart tonight
E
Carry me carry me
ABE
Through this cold midnight
E
Many times a young man has to wander around
DAE
Until he breaks himself in two
E
Not all but many many of us
ABE
Will never learn what to do
BAE
Sometimes a young man has to wander around
E
I had my reasons for leaving and
DAE
Now I know that I was wrong
E
It was selfish to think you’d be better off
ABE
Just cause I wanted to be further along
E
Carry me carry me
DAE
Back to your side tonight
E
Here comes that old devil midnight
DAE
And I have not slept in days
E
And there’ll be no rest on this midnight
ABE
If the highway has it's way
BAE
Here comes that old devil midnight
E
Carry me carry me
DAE
Back to your heart tonight
E
Carry me carry me
ABE
Through this cold midnight
E
Carry me, carry me
DAE
Back to your side tonight
Carry me carry me
ABE
Through this cold midnight
BAE
Bury me bury me underneath your starlight
BAE
Bury me bury me underneath your starlight
