Verse 1 (w/ intro progression)
String along, that's all i am is just your
String along, someone that you just seem to
Bring along, whenever you are all alone
And need some company you always turn to me
Verse 2 (w/intro progression)
String along, that's all i do is sorta
String along, you never seem to notice
I'm along, I just want you to want me too
Oh how i hope and pray
That you'll need me someday
Guitar solo (notes are right but at end he does a riff to switch from key of C to C# and
little etchy on that part but I'll give it a shot)
