Intro: C# A#m F# G# C#

[Verse 1]

C#
See ya sleepin’

On the ground
         A#m
See ya screamin’

With no sound
             F#             G#
When your blanket starts to wear
          C#
I’ll be there

C#
See ‘em peekin’

Every night
         A#m
Momma’s beaten

Don’t know why
            F#            G#
When your tears begin to shed
          C#
I’ll be there

C#
In those times when you feel all alone
 A#m
Forced to find your way through worlds unknown
       F#                 G#
Look ahead and don’t be scared
          C#
I’ll be there

[CHORUS]

Fm        A#m               F#             C#
I’ll be there through the rough winds and rain and ice
Fm        A#m            F#                C#
I’ll be there when the night falls and troubles rise
Fm        A#m         F#
I’ll be there when you need me
     C#         G#     D#m
No matter what how or when
     G#
My friend
          C#
I’ll be there

C# A#m F# G# C#

[VERSE 2]

See ‘em bleedin’
No more smiles
Goodbye letters
On the ground
When no one will spare their ears
I’ll be there

When your back’s up
On the wall
Chronic failure
You’ve been called
When you feel there’s no escape
I’ll be there

[Repeat Chorus]

[BRIDGE]

F#                F                  A#m       G#        F#
Whenever you’re faced with what you feel like you can’t bare

Call on me and I’ll be
  C#                  G#
Beside you until the end

C#
Lift your head up and stand tall
            A#m
Promise I won’t let you fall
           F#           G#
When you reach I will extend
          C#
I’ll be there
