A                         D
If you call me, I'll come running
E                       A
And you can call me anytime
A                           D
These sixteen strings we're strumming
E                       A
They will back up every line

There's a motivation about you
C                        A
That moves me when we're apart

Get me back on my feet

It's not essential that I feel you

But it's a sensitive device
C                       A
I'm reverential when I hear you
C                     A
I genuflect to your advice
C                      A
Well, I wish I had the words
C                         A
And I want those words to rhyme
C                    A
And I wish I had the nerve

'Cus I sure don't have the time

Get me back on my feet
C                          A
Brother, can you spare the time?
