As recorded by Cameron Whitcomb

Capo 1st fret


[Intro]
C


[Verse 1]
C
When I was young
         C7
Before I grew
          F
Back when friends were friends forever
        Fm
And the skies were always blue
           C
When I was small
     C7
Two-feet tall
         F
The only woman in my life
        Fm
Was the angel I called "Mom"
            Am7
Oh, it gets hard
         D
And it goes fast
      F
But I know that you'd pick up
             G
No questions asked


[Chorus]
        Dm
If they told me I ain't making bail
    G
Got one phone call from county jail
    C         G/B      Am7
I'd call, I'd call for you
      Dm
If my bus broke down in Devil's Pass
    G
I'd walk until my legs collapsed
    C          G/B      Am7
I'd crawl, I'd crawl to you
                     Dm
The world is full of hands
                        G7
That hold you when it's worth it
                  C
But you gave me a chance
     G/B                Am7
When they thought I was worthless
          Dm          G
So when I fall like I do
          C
I'll call for you


[Verse 2]
C
Now I'm old
               C7
Well, old enough
                   F
To know my friends are not my brothers
              Fm
And the world can really suck
        C7
When it rains
                C7
It seems to pour
           F
But you're always there with dry clothes
       Fm
When I show up at your door
               Am7
'Cause it gets hard
        D
And it goes fast
      F
But I know that you'd pick up
             G
No questions asked


[Chorus]
        Dm
If they told me I ain't making bail
    G
Got one phone call from county jail
    C         G/B      Am7
I'd call, I'd call for you
      Dm
If my bus broke down in Devil's Pass
    G
I'd walk until my legs collapsed
    C          G/B      Am7
I'd crawl, I'd crawl to you
                     Dm
The world is full of hands
                        G7
That hold you when it's worth it
                  C
But you gave me a chance
     G/B                Am7
When they thought I was worthless
          Dm          G
So when I fall like I do
              Dm7
I'll call for you
                    G
Yeah, I'll call for you
                    C
Yeah, I'll call for you
G/B                 Am7
Yeah, I'll call for you


[Bridge]
     Dm
If I lost my life at twenty-three
       G
You'll hear me through those cedar trees
     C                   Am7
I'll call, I'll call for you
    Dm
And it won't fix a broken heart
    G                              C
But know that every decent part of me
    G/B      Am7
Was all from you


[Outro]
                     Dm
The world is full of hands
                        G7
That hold you when it's worth it
                  C
But you gave me a chance
     G/B                Am7
When they thought I was worthless
          Dm          G
So when I fall like I do
              C
I'll call for you
C
I'll call for you
