Tuning: drop the E string to D. Tune guitar down ½ step This tab is perfect.

If you don’t think this tab is right,

"Stay With Me"

once again your eyes make it hard to say goodbye

so i'll just keep driving

where do you wanna go?

it doesn't really matter as long as you are here with me

with me

with me

whoa, there's something in the air tonight

something that makes me feel alive and i say

whoa, what were the words that you said to me

that made me feel so special now

once again your eyes make it hard to ask you why

so i sit here knuckles tight

hands against the wheel

your head against the glass and you mean so much to me

to me

to me

whoa, there's something in the air tonight

something that makes me feel alive and i say

whoa, what were the words that you said to me

that made me feel so special now

whoa (stay with me)

whoa (stay with me)

whoa (stay with me)

whoa (stay)

stay with me

cigarettes* and open air, hand in hand

i said stay with me

cuz every star that i see is brighter than the last

so stay with me

*Cigarettes are gay so you can use “sittin in the open air” instead of cigarettes

and open air.hehehehe

This is a good song to sing for your girl when your driving in the car.
