I realise this song isn’t finger picked and that he uses a hammer on to get the right
effect, but I find this a good alternative seen as I can’t sing and play it the way he
does at the same time! haha.

This is my first tab so be nice

CHORD PROGRESSION (courtesty of ely_koptaire)

V1 I don’t know where you came from
but I do know that I’m not alone
be sure that I love you darling
even though sometimes we won’t get along

there’s not a day that passes by, my dear

that I don’t think of the first night we spoke

and those words are staying upon your skin

along with that precious smile of hope

CH that’s why I’m like wait, wait, wait
don’t you know I could be your home?
I’m like wait, wait, wait
cause nobody wants to be alone

V2 lying there on the kitchen floor (same as V1)

were the last signs of a helpless soul

and she knew that he would die right then

and so she held him until the last breath grew old

and so she cried as her darling slept

in between her arms, slid to the floor

and then she screamed out into the cold, cold night

oh my God, please don’t go

CH she was like, wait, wait, wait

I love you more than you know

she was like, wait, wait, wait

I don’t wanna be alone

oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (ahem)

that’s why I’m like, wait, wait, wait
