Taking Me On

Fm D A E B

[Verse]
Fm         D           E
You’re the angel in my pocket
Fm         D             E
You’re the whisper in my head
Fm         D             E
You’re the perfume on my dirty shirt
Fm           D               E
The favorite words I’ve ever said

[Verse]
Fm         D                   E
You’re the edge I just stepped off of
Fm         D                   E
You’re the sunlight through my window pane
Fm         D                          E
You’re the road that I want to break down on
               B
In the pouring rain

[Chorus]
A         E       Fm     E    D
‘Cause I know I’m not easy to hold
            B
But you’ve reached me, baby
A         E       Fm
You saved me from me
       E             B
Before I was too far gone
        D             E         Fm  D  E
Girl, I love you for taking me on

[Verse]
Fm         D                  E
I spent my life just spinning my wheels
Fm           D                E
But I wasn’t getting’ nowhere fast
                           Fm
You took my foot off the gas
               D                    E
You brought me miles from where you found me
                  B
Now I ain’t going back

[Chorus]
A         E       Fm     E    D
‘Cause I know I’m not easy to hold
            B
But you’ve reached me, baby
A         E       Fm
You saved me from me
       E             B
Before I was too far gone(too far gone)
        D             E         D
Girl, I love you for taking me on

[Bridge]
D
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
E
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
D                                  E       B
You were strong enough to carry me all the way

[Chorus]
A         E       Fm     E    B
‘Cause I know I’m not easy to hold

You saved me from me
       E             B
