Send "Hear You Me" ringtones to your cell

[Jim Adkins] 
There's no one in town I know 
You gave us some place to go 
I never said thank you for that 
I thought I might get one more chance 

What would you think of me now, 
So lucky, so strong, so proud? 
Never said thank you for that 
Now I'll never have a chance 

May angels lead you in 
Hear you me my friends 
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go 
May angels lead you in 

So what would you think of me now 
So lucky, so strong, so proud? 
I never said thank you for that 
Now I'll never have a chance 

[Jim Adkins & Rachel Haden (w/ RH subdued)] 
May angels lead you in 
Hear you me my friends 
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go 
May angels lead you in 

[Rachel Haden] 
May angels lead you in 
[Jim Adkins] 
May angels lead you in 
[Rachel Haden] 
May angels lead you in 
[Jim Adkins & Rachel Haden] 
May angels lead you in 

[Jim Adkins] 
And if you were with me tonight 
I'd sing to you just one more time 
A song for a heart so big 
God couldn't let it live

[Jim Adkins & Rachel Haden] 
May angels lead you in 
Hear you me my friends 
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go 
May angels lead you in 

May angels lead you in 
Hear you me my friends 
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go 
May angels lead you in 

On sleepless roads, the sleepless go 
May angels lead you in

354 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is definitely one of JEW's best songs, it's so moving and you can tell that it was written for someone that they cared a lot about, I forgot their names but I read the story that goes with the song. And to Gothoops13, I'd like to know who you are because I also knew Garrett and I was at the memorial and when they played that song I was just about knocked over with feeling. I still cry every once in a while when I hear it.

50 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal ok, this song is so beautiful. its about the band's buddy's that lived in this one town that JEW were playing at, and they showed the band around the town (two nice teen girls) and they were so great to the band. so, one day the two girls died in a bad car accident and jimmy eat world made a song about them. i know this beause my sis is best friends with the band. if the 2 girls were here now, they would have so much graditude

8 posts	i agree that movie i was on my way out and heard the single guitar solo that started off the song. i just had to stay.. but yeah hear you me is an excellent song with excellent lyrics. by far the best song they've ever written. right up there with "lucky denver mint" and "pain" (although those aren't my absolute favorites) really hats off to Jimmy and Mr. Adkins (we all should now refer to him as Mr. hes just well hes GOD)

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal OMG! This is the best song ever. I heard it in A Cinderella Story and i fell in love w/ it. I didn't know the name so i kept renting a cinderela story off ondemand until i founf it out. now it is on my ipod and i cant stop listening to it. it makes me think of all the people who i've liked, went out with, and my friend Phylis and her sister who died. Especially the sleepless roads part. I get so sad. but i have it say it is a REALLY good song and i definitly reccomend it.
