Am G C
I’ve been thinking I should write some kind of love song for you¦
F Am G C
Too prove to you I do
F
It shouldn™t be to hard to write
Am G C
I™ll just think of that time I first saw you in Omaha
F Am G
You were stranded on Jackson with a bus fare to who know™s where
C F
I took you in, right, then and there
Am G C
And life took on a new form
F
No more stayin out all night
Am G C
No more killin ourselves just to make ourselves feel alright
Am G C G C
No more sleepin with strangers and those awkward goodbyes
I never had much family, never had too many friends
Then you came wandering through
Pompously I took you for granted
That™s why I gotta write this little, this little love song for you
I™ll sing about those Denver mornings you™d wake up
bawlin bout a long lost kid
Your maternal instincts, were kickin in
As the sun dazzled bright upon the peaks
You brought home a dog you found in the alley
You said "can we keep her?" I said "well, what kind of man would I be?"
So you bought her a collar, and you called her your family
Writers are selfish, writers are egotists
I™m afraid I™m as bad as it gets
I keep forgettin to sensor the truth
That™s why I better write some kinda love song for you
Drivin cross country in a U-Haul, on the hunt for our new home
High a top Eagle Rock, we found a house with a big back yard
So we picked up another mutt, from the Crenshaw Pound
Sippin coffee on the porch while the dogs wrestle on the lawn
I™m sorry I™ve had my doubts¦
Were a family of strays but together we™ve been found
Were a family of stray™s but together we™ve been found
