Guitar chords with lyrics
Not sure on a couple chords, the Bm7 in
particular.
G                      Bm7
Your holding bits of styrofoam
           Dsus4(add9)              G
With your face painted on to your friends
                    Bm7
You listen to them whine and moan
       Dsus4(add9)            G
About everything you can't understand
   Asus4    A    Asus2           A
Can I just say I don't feel the light,
     Asus4     A           Asus2          A
But darkness descends once more into my life
G                       Bm7
     And suddenly we're all alone
    Dsus4(add9)             G
In silence so I take a step away
                 Bm7
I look up to the falling snow
      Dsus4(add9)            G
As it makes its home upon my face
        Asus4            A      Asus2           A
Well I wouldn't want to ruin something I couldn't save
    Asus4            A      Asus2           A
The gap will keep us safe, the gap will keep us safe
 Bm         A   Bm                A
     Step away,  get me when I'm down
G                    Bm7
    And suddenly I'm 5 years old
        Dsus4(add9)             G
And I'm just so cold I want to cry
                   Bm7
I haul up on my gentlemen
         Dsus4(add9)                G
Who have always been there in hard times
       Asus4      A       Asus2       A
They're just not like that man of mine
    Asus4  A       Asus2     A
Who visits me from time to time
Bm       A   Bm           A
    My love,   I treasure you
G                     Bm7
I hear that summers coming back
     Dsus4(add9)                G
So I stretch out my back and travel on
                      Bm7
The winter though it darkens me
      Dsus4(add9)              G
It is pure and clean and all I want
     Asus4  A       Asus2     A
Ill apologise to the ones I love
      Asus4  A            Asus2     A
For leaving them when the sun comes up
Bm      A            Bm              A
   Too bright for me,   darkens descends
Em               A              Em                A
Oh well I'm not well again and once more darkness it descends
     Em                A
The ground is falling under me
    Em               A
And I cant find the means to leave
G                       Bm7
   Convinced that I am going mad
    Dsus4(add9)              G
Oh I bury my head into his hands
                   Bm7
So sure that I am losing faith
      Dsus4(add9)                  G
Oh I clear a space in his fathers land
      Asus4   A   Asus2     A
You deal with god far too young,
  Asus4        A       Asus2     A     D?
