D
Put down the cigarettes
D
Don't take those sleepin' pills
A
Stay up and talk with me
        G             D
Cause I wanna be with you


Nobody's callin' me
There's nowhere to be tonight
Come in and lock the door
Cause I wanna be with you


Chorus:
G
Love's never easy
D
And I know I'm hard on you
Bm                         G
I think you realize you're hard on me too
G
So when the goin's tough
D
We can't put our weapons down
Bm                                  G  
Cause this love is strong enough to stay around
                     A        A/G#  A/F#   
They can't take this fortress down


These people talk too much
I'm a conversation piece
We can't let 'em split us up
Cause I wanna be with you


And I'm not a paycheck
And you're more than trailer trash
And a power too big for us
Has left me here with you 


interlude


Chorus
G
Love's never easy
D
And I know I'm hard on you
Bm                         G
I think you realize you're hard on me too
G
So when the goin's tough
D
We can't put our weapons down
Bm                                  G  
Cause this love is strong enough to stay around
                     A        A/G#  A/F#   
They can't take this fortress down


You know that talk is cheap
I speak my heart and melody
And I'll use this song to sing
That I wanna be with you
