Lyrics

Wrapped the up, so con sumed by all this (E)hurt.

If If it helps you me ask walk a me, way don’t then it’s know where to (E)start.

An Ev ’ry mi ger, nute love, gets ea con si fu er the sion, more you (E)roads that go no where.

I know there’s some where bet ter ’cause you al ways take me (E)there.

Came to you with a bro ken faith.

Gave me more than a hand to hold.

Caught be fore I hit the ground.

Tell me I’m safe, you’ve got me now.

Would you take the wheel

if I lose con trol?

If I’m ly ing here,

will you take me home?

Could you take care

of a bro ken soul?

Will you hold me now?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Hold the truth to my head, count one, two, (E)three.

If If it helps you me ask walk a me, way don’t then it’s what I to (E)need.

An Ev ’ry mi ger, nute love, gets ea con si fu er the sion, more you (E)roads talk go to me.

You ra tion ’lize my dark est thoughts, you yeah, you set them (E)free.

Came to you with a bro ken faith.

Gave me more than a hand to hold.

Caught be fore I hit the ground.

Tell me I’m safe, you’ve got me now.

Would you take the wheel

if I lose con trol?

If I’m ly ing here,

will you take me home?

Could you take care

of a bro ken soul?

Will you hold me now?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?

Oh, will you take me home?
