[Verse 1]
 
B                           G#m
John, listen up, I'm a wreck, I'm a mess
                      E
This is not the effect of a loss or a vex
          B
This is you
 
B                            G#m
Hand me the key to your door
                                  E
Give me one solid week give me four years
                         B
To climb the stairs and pine
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C#m
John, it's time
              G#m
Let me be the moon you shine
              E
Let me be the honest home where you can rest
     F#     B
Your tired mind
 
 
[Solo]
(The guitar part seems to be in 7/8, but the percussion continues playing quarters. Compromise: 7/4)

[Verse 2]
 
B                            G#m
You know me new, knew me well
                               E
When I was just a girl only nineteen,
               B
Twisted in my head
 
   B                            G#m
So don't try and tell me to help
 
This is not how you help
             E
You don't know me now
               B
In any way I said
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C#m
Don't get tired
             G#m
Honey, I won't keep you long
           E                                  F#        B
I was just calling up to find out if you were still in town
