F                      C
If you're ever sitting at the airport
F                    C
And you don't wanna leave
F                 C
Don't even know what you're there for
Am
Send for me

If you're ever heartsick in an elevator
Full of bachelorettes
Cornered in and it's taking forever
Please don't forget

Chorus:
 G              F
Send for me whenever, wherever
 C                 F
Send for me, I'll come and get you
 G              F             C
Send for me whenever, wherever

If you're ever at a glass top table
Selling your ideas
To swivel-chairing underlings
Who just don't see it
If you're singing in a song museum
Without a drop to drink
And you can't even make eye contact
Can't even think

Chorus:
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me, I'll come and get you
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me, I thought you'd never
Send for me whenever, wherever

 Dm                   C/E
Run out, run out, run out to me now
 C
Run out, run out, I'm pulling around
 Dm                    C
Run out, run out, run out, run out to me now
 Dm                   C/E
Run out, run out, run out to me now
 C
Run out, run out, I'm pulling around
 Dm                    C
Run out, run out, run out, run out to me now

If you're ever in a psychiatric greenhouse
With slip-on shoes
Wipe a smile on the shatterproof windows
I'll know what to do
If you're ever in a gift shop dying inside
Filling up with tears
'Cause you thought of somebody you loved
You haven't seen in years

Chorus:
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me, I'll come and get you
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me, I thought you'd never
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me whenever, wherever
Send for me, I'll come and get you
Send for me whenever, wherever
