Verse
[Gadd9]There's a [Bm7]weakness, in the window
[Asus4]I place my footprints, in the dark room
[Gadd9]There's lonely [Bm7]voices, like a scarecrow
[Asus4]In the hallway, like a lost ghost
[Gadd9]In the bedroom, I [Bm7]see a shadow
[Asus4]From the moon with light from a candle
[Gadd9]On a bed frame, [Bm7]lies a girl
[Asus4]Her reflection, in the mirror

Am knocking at your backdoor
[D5/F#]Ladada [Gadd9]dadada dadada [Bm7]dadala [Asus4]dada
nervous like a knife fight

Where I like to [G]think of you with me

Verse2 (same chords as verse 1)
It's a dark night, on the West Coast
Then a soft breeze, as the sun rose
Then the phone rang, like a gunshot
Like a siren, on the beach rock
There's a message, at the river
A certain package here to deliver
When the day breaks, after nightfall
I will be there, you know I will
