Intro: Am G F Am G F Verse 1: Am G F The way that you call, the way that you call out quietly Am G F What did you learn? What did you learn from loving me? Am G F To move in the world, to move in the world more graciously Dm F Your promised return, your promised return ain't much to me Am G F But letting you down, letting you down was hell for me Am G F The colours of love, the colour of us was gold and green Am G F The peace and the birds, the peace and the birds don't visit me Pre-Chorus: Dm F I was winning once, but that's been and gone Am G I was playing with the fire that you made for me Dm What we running from? Chorus: C Dm I couldn't hold you for the last time and then let you go Am F Standing at the turnstile, you looked so alone C Oh, to be someone you rely on Dm F A hill that we can die on, wait up with the light on C Dm Don't wanna know this life without you, I'm not strong enough Am F You turn and close your eyes 'cause you can't even look C Losing someone to rely on Dm F A hill that we could die on, wait up with the light on Intro:
Am G F Verse 2: Am G F Let me believe, let me believe we'll last the night Am G F What do we need? 'Cause there ain't much left to sacrifice Am G F But I gotta breathe (I gotta breathe), I better breathe to save my mind Pre-Chorus: Dm F I was winning once, but that's been and gone Am G Dm I was playing with the fire that you made for me F What we running from? Chorus: F C Dm I couldn't hold you for the last time and then let you go Am F Standing at the turnstile, you looked so alone C Oh, to be someone you rely on Dm F A hill that we can die on, wait up with the light on C Dm Don't wanna know this life without you, I'm not strong enough Am F You turn and close your eyes 'cause you can't even look C Losing someone to rely on Dm F A hill that we could die on, wait up with the light on Bridge: Dm F I'll admit it once Am Then I'll hold my tongue G Dm I was clutching at the dream that you'd stay with me F And the truth beloved Am Is you'll always run G Dm Back and forth in my mind every day you breathe Pre-Chorus: F Am I was winning once, but that's been and gone G Dm I was playing with the fire that you made for me F What we running from? Chorus: C Dm I couldn't hold you for the last time and then let you go Am F Standing at the turnstile, you looked so alone C Oh, to be someone you rely on Dm F A hill that we can die on, wait up with the light on C Dm Don't wanna know this life without you, I'm not strong enough Am F You turn and close your eyes 'cause you can't even look G Losing someone to rely on Am F A hill that we could die on, wait up with the light on G Losing someone to rely on Am C Dm Am F A hill that we could die on, wait up with the light on C Dm F C Wait up with the light on
