INTRO: C  G  Bb  C  F  C
  
                    G
TV flashes down the hall
                         Bb
Painting pictures on the wall
                 F              C
And you're still sleeping on my knees
                          G
And in the glow of silver light
                             Bb
I trace the lines above your eyes
             F                             Am
Just another wrinkle that you can blame on me
 
 
PD-C HORUS:
    G                                            F
But I can hear the current of the freeway in the distance
                     Am
If I keep listening
      G    
And I wonder if you ever thought 
                           F
Of streaming off somewhere with it
   Bb              F
Am I not what you thought?
         F                     C
Will you get tired of what you got?
 
 
CHORUS:
                       Dm
If I can't give you anymore
                                 F
Than weathered ships and distant shores
                      Bb          F    C
Would you still be my compass, yeah?
                              Dm
'Cause you keep loving me the same
                                F
I don't know how, but you still stay with me, baby
    Bb             F - G - C
You stay with me, baby_____

                     G
Another day, another week
                          Bb
We'll slip back in old routines
                 F               C
'Til nights like these come in between
                      G
Simple moments in the dark
                           Bb
Ones that life can't tear apart
           F                     Am
They come along, oh just when we need
 
 
PD-C HORUS:
    G                                              F
And I still hear the current of the freeway in the distance
                     Am
But I stop listening
         G   
'Cause I know you'll stay
                                 F
Even though the waves are always shifting
      Bb                F
We're fighting our way through
  Fm             C
I guess I always knew
 
 
CHORUS:
                       Dm
If I can't give you anymore
                                 F
Than weathered ships and distant shores
                      Bb          F   C
Would you still be my compass, yeah
                              Dm
'Cause you keep loving me the same
                                F
I don't know how, but you still stay with me, baby
    Bb             F - G - C
You stay with me, baby

PARTIAL CHORUS:
                               Dm
'Cause you keep loving me the same
             F
I don't know how, but you still stay with me, baby
    Bb             F - G - C   Em
You stay with me, baby
         Bb          C  F  G  C
Ooh, you stay with me
