Verse 1:
I've been awake for a while now
you've got me feelin like a child now
cause every time i see your bubbly face
i get the tinglies in a silly place
Same chords in the chorus:
*She arpeggios the intro chords, (and also includes the 5th fret on the High E with all
chords. This is the bracket in the intro)
*or lightly strum these chords
Chorus:
A
It starts in my toes
Amaj7
and I crinkle my nose
D A
where ever it goes i always know
A
that you make me smile
Amaj7
please stay for a while now

A
where ever you go
Go back to the intro tab for this verse (but give it a bounce.)
Verse 2:
The rain is fallin on my window pane
but we are hidin in a safer place

I’ve been asleep for a while now
You tucked me in just like a child now
Cause every time you hold me in your arms
I'm comfortable enough to feel your warmth
Chorus:
It starts in my soul
And I lose all control
When you kiss my nose
The feelin shows
Cause you make me smile
Baby just take your time now
Holdin me ti-i-ight

Alternatively you could play this (OR intro/verse tabs, but arpeggio'd!)
A Amaj7 D/F# A
Where ever, where ever, where ever you go
A(no6) Amaj7(no7) D/F#(no3) A
Where ever, where ever, where ever you go…
A(no6) Amaj7(no7) D/F#(no3) A
Ooh wherever you go, I always know
A(no6) Amaj7(no7) D/F#(no3) A
Cause you make me smile, baby, just for a while...
That was my first TAB ever. I think I kicked butt.
