Sos chords

[Intro]
Am G C F
 
[Verse]
Am           G
5:34 AM, was about to start my day
    C                          F
She laid there across me, so I stayed anyway
Am                         G
Arms are tired, legs numb, wrapped around my knee
C                               F
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
 
[Instrumental]
Am G C F
 
[Verse]
       Am                                 G
Don't recall what you were wearing on the first night we met
           C                               F
Just had a subtle cloud around you from my last cigarette
        Am                            G
And you come from a good place with a happy family
     C                            F
Only bad you've ever done was to see the good in me

Am G C F
 
[Chorus]
      Am        G       C           F
Well I've been livin, waitin on the day
          Am        G       C               F
That the good lord willing sends you out my way
          Am           G         C           F
I've seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
 Am              G          C                    F
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
 
Am G C F
