Before You Called Me Baby

   Am                G
sure is hard to remember
   F#m          D             F
life before you walked in the picture
   Am                       G
i was a sad mona lisa with a crooked frame
   F#m                           F
standing on my platform, waiting for my train


[Pre-Chorus]
      C                     G
i was messed up, wondering, broke down, stumbling
Am             F
running for my life
    C                       G
was heartbroke, hard up, a long string of bad luck
Am                       F
searching with no end in sight


[Chorus]
                     C       F
before you called me baby
F                    C
before you looked me in the eyes
      F               C          F
i had nothing left to save me
                C                    F
before you called me, before you called me
F                    C          F
before you called me baby


[Verse 2]
              Am                      G
it’s like the walls came down and the lights turned on
F#m                   D        F
and the band started playing a different song
      Am              C            F#m
i was baptized by the fire in your kiss
   Am               F
no i’ve never, ever felt like this


[Chorus]
                     C      F
before you called me baby
F                 C
before you looked me in the eyes
      F               C           F
i had nothing left to save me
            C                    F
before you called me, before you called me
F         C          F
before you called me baby
F         C          F
before you called me baby
F         C          F
before you called me baby


[Bridge]
      C                 G                 Am
i was drowning, wasted, lost and hanging by a thread
F              C                 G
i was sinking, shook up, and almost gave up
Am                    F
on this lonely heart in my chest


[Chorus]
C                 F
before you called me baby
F                 C
before you looked me in the eyes
F          C             F
i had nothing left to save me
C                    F
before you called me, before you called me
F         C          F
before you called me baby
F         C          F
before you called me baby
F         C          F
before you called me baby
