Play the "G" chord as a "rock G" or: 320033 Intro When the weight of the world bears down so strong, you leave footprints on the street. And there's too many miles to face, without a few more hours sleep. The storm clouds overhead won't shed any rain to quench your thirst I wanna be the one you reach for first When your faith is stretched so thin that you can see straight through your soul. And you can't find a nickel to buy a smile, 'cause your pockets all got holes. You wanna shut the door and hide before the day can get much worse I wanna be the one you reach for first Chorus: Fall into me My arms are open wide And you don't have to say a word 'Cause I already see That it's hard and you're scared And you're tired and it hurts And I wanna be the one you reach for first I wanna be the bottle you've been drinking with your eyes Or the road you run away on, you've been runnin' all your life The third row pew that you last knew as a child in church I wanna be the one you reach for first Chorus: Fall into me My arms are open wide And you don't have to say a word 'Cause I already see That it's hard and you're scared And you're tired and it hurts And I wanna be the one you reach for first Before you turn the key, before you fall asleep, before you drift away to fight those demons waiting for you in your dreams. Before your arms are stretched wide open, 'fore you reach into the sky, before you're searchin' for direction and all the answers to your whys. Fall into me oh, my arms are stretched wide open, you don't have to say a word, because I already see that it's hard and you're scared and you're tired and I know it hurts. Yes it's hard and you're scared and you're tired and it hurts and I wanna be the one you reach for first. Repeat through end
