What Did I Ever Come Here For Chords & Lyrics - Brandi Carlile

Capo 2

Intro: [G] , [E] , [F] , [G] , [C]

[F]I’ve [C]been gone for[G] so long
And how I m[C]issed y[F]ou
My heart was [C]aching for [G]home
[F]And then one n[C]ight as I lay d[G]own
Somewhere [C]far from y[F]ou
I dreamt that I [C]heard you call m[G]y name
But my mind was p[F]laying games

I knew ri[C]ght then that Iâ[G]€™d return
To where I [C]was befo[F]re
And I was so t[C]ired of [G]being away
That I just coul[C]dn’t sta[F]y anymore
What did I ever c[G]ome here fo[C]r?
[G]Oh no no [E]no no [F]no
What did I ever [G]come here f[C]or?

[F]I thought if I sh[C]owed up in the ni[G]ght
In my be[C]st disg[F]uise
There at your doorway in yo[C]ur porch [G]light
That you would look in[C]to my e[F]ye
And you would realize [C]who I [G]am
Put your arms ar[C]ound m[F]e
You gonna love me s[C]o much m[G]ore
Than you ever did be[F]fore
What did I ever [G]come here [C]for?
[G]Oh no [E]no no no [F]no
What did I ever [G]come here [C]for?

[F]It wasn’t[C] too lo[G]ng before
I showed up a[C]t your [F]door
I’d b[C]een gone a thou[G]sand miles
[F]I didn’t k[C]now how much more I c[G]ould stand
If I could [C]stand at a[F]ll
You said I looked like Iâ?[C] ?™d been through World[G] War II
And my soul was w[C]orn right [F]through
I thought you would read m[C]y m[G]ind
I thought you’d [C]ask me[F] to stay
You'd never turn me a[C]way like b[G]efore
But you closed your [C]door a[F]nyway
What did I ever [G]come here [C]for?
[G]Oh no [E]no no no [F]no
What did I ever [G]come here [C]for?
[G]Oh no [E]no no no [F]no
What did I ever [G]come here [C]for?
[G]Oh no [E]no no no [F]no
What did I ever [G]come here [C]for?
