Being There

It’s Sunday morning. I started it early at Starbuck’s with the New York Times, then returned to my apartment to pick up my bike to take into the shop.

Instead, I picked up my guitar and wrote this little piece of optimism: “Being There.” Capo second fret, 4/4 time, maybe 110 bpm, kinda’ percussive-like…

I am just a simple man, I will promise what I can
I can promise just one thing
Every sunrise that is new, every day I spend with you
I will promise just one thing

DAEmG
Being there, lying with you
Stars above us, I will give you
Everything you want now baby everything you need
Being there, lost beside you
When the night falls, I will find you
Everything you want now baby everything you need

I have just this simple plan, to promise only what I can
I will promise just one thing

DAEmG
Being there, lying with you
Stars above us, I will give you
Everything you want now baby everything you need
Being there, lost beside you
When the night falls, I will find you
Everything you want now baby everything you need

Just take me as I am, take me as I am

Lay your head down, it’s allright, you’ll be safe here by my side
I will promise you one thing
Every sunset that is new, every night I spend with you
I will promise just one thing

DAEmG
Being there, lying with you
Stars above us, I will give you
Everything you want now baby everything you need
Being there, lost beside you
When the night falls, I will find you
Everything you want now baby everything you need
