Intro:
C F

Verse 1:
C                               F
This old house might swallow us whole
C                                                      F
Begins with our family and soon it comes 'round to our soul
C                                              F
We’re trying to grab 'hold of what we can't control
       G      F               C    F
Always livi---ing here on the edge

Verse 2:
C                                       F
And that little heart, so little and complete
C                               F
Doesn’t worry 'bout making ends meet
C                                F
As the dust is settling on every street
     G       F           C     F
I am filli---ing up with dread

Chorus:
                  G           F             C     F
And that's got me feeling, feeling heavy as lead

Bridge:
A                          G               D
Don't tell me everything's gonna be alri---ight
A                          G               D
Don't tell me everything's gonna be alri---ight

Verse 3:
C                           F
And I don't mean to be so unkind
C                                        F
I’ve just got too much weighing in on my mind
C                               F
I’m always afraid I'm falling behind
            G   F          C     F
Always reachi---ing to get ahead

Chorus:
                  G           F             C                       F
And that's got me feeling, feeling heavy as lead, lead, lead, lea---ad
         C                       F
Heavy as lead, lead, lead, lea---ad
                           C
Heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead
