I'm on watch here
   Em*                 G
So close your eyes and get some rest

I'm here to watch your heart

Jumping through my hoops

With dissension in the troops

And a smile inside

Fear of getting older

From your heart or from the phone book
         C/G       Em
It don't matter to me
       C/G               Em
I'm an apple, you're the tree
        Bm          C/G
I won't fall when you shook
 
[Chorus]
Bm                   Am
What's that over your shoulder?

Fear of getting older

Staaaaay wiiiiiith meeeeeeee.

It ends with a kiss
               G
It ends with a tear
                 Em
It ends with the lights up
             C/G
Bathing our fear
            D
Tell me nonsense
                G
I don't want to see
          C/G                       D                      Em
I saw the lightning cut through the last winter sky of the year
 
[Chorus]
Em       C/G        G      D
Staaaaay wiiiiiith meeeeeeee.
Em       C/G        G      D
Keeeeeep wiiiiiith me...

A change to lyrics: - "faulty" instead of "faulted" - "ribs in your chest" instead of "rips" - "and a smile and a sigh" instead of "a smile inside" - "when you're shook" instead of "when you shook" - "lights out, bathed in our fear" instead of "lights up, bathing ..." - "I don't want sincere" instead of "I don't want to see" Great chords, cheers

great tab. especially for your first. I just have one correction! At the end where it goes " it ends with a tear, it ends with the lights up" it's Em and then G instead of G and then Em. you just have to switch those chords :)

Great tab... one correction/remark. Tom Smith plays the chord that you call Em* as this 200230 (not 200200). So technically speaking it's an Dadd9/F# (or Dadd2/F#). Thanks for your tab... keep the good work up!
