C#And the roll call is missing a Bname C#Since you left things haven't been the Asame E B* A* But I don't blame you, there was nothing here to make you stay But I reC#member the way that you'd Blight up a room when you C#walk in, The way that you'd Alead a crowd when you Esing B* A* Jamie, this one is for you.
B* C#* E E* B* C#* Pre-club beers at Dan's before we hit the road We're nicely warmed up, pleasantly half-loaded E E* Ready for a night on fire, we're going to get out the big guns B* And I run down the numbers, scan through the faces C#* Run through the plans, scout out the places E E* I'm electrified, surrounded, but can't shake the feeling of still missing something or someone
