[Verse 1]
Em7 G
Street lights along the highway
D Cadd9
Throwing shadows in the dark
Em7 G
And the memories keep on turning
D Cadd9
To the rhythm of a broken heart
[Chorus]
Em7 G
You only need a roof when it’s raining
D Cadd9
You only need a fire when it’s cold
Em7 G
You only need a drink when the whiskey
D Cadd9
Is the only thing you have left to hold
Em7 G
Sun comes up and goes back down
D Cadd9
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Em7 G
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
D (Repeat Intro)
Baby, I will be your parachute
Em7 G D Cadd9

[Verse 2]
Em7 G
There’s a song that I remember
D Cadd9
I never learned to play
Em7 G
And a lifetime of forgotten words
D Cadd9
I never got to say
[Chorus]
Em7 G
You only need a roof when it’s raining
D Cadd9
You only need a fire when it’s cold
Em7 G
You only need a drink when the whiskey
D Cadd9
Is the only thing you have left to hold
Em7 G
Sun comes up and goes back down
D Cadd9
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Em7 G
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
D Em7 G D
Baby, I will be your parachute
Em7 G D
Parachute
[Solo]
Em7 G D Cadd9 (x2)
[Bridge]
D Cadd9
If you think you’re going down
D Cadd9
Just know I will be around
[Chorus]
Em7 G
You only need a roof when it’s raining
D Cadd9
You only need a fire when it’s cold
Em7 G
You only need a drink when the whiskey
D Cadd9
Is the only thing you have left to hold
Em7 G
Sun comes up and goes back down
D Cadd9
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Em7 G
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
D
Baby, I will be your...
D (Repeat Intro) (x2)
Baby, I will be your parachute
