Gm


🎸 Verse:
     Gm
Well I've got the thunder in my bones
             Cmaj7
I've got the trouble in my soul
 F                                        Gm
Drowning in tears my eyes were too proud to cry

            Gm                               D#
I hear you knockin' at my door, but I can't open it no more
             F                                     Cm
'Cause this heart's half full of rain and risin' high

         Cmaj7                            F
Sometimes all that you can do is just survive


🎸 Chorus:
Gm
I can't row you across right now
Gm
I can't row you across right now
     A#         F        Gm
I'm too busy building a bridge

Gm
I can't throw you a line right now
Gm
I can't throw you a line right now
     A#         F      Gm
I'm too busy tryin' to live


🎸 Verse:
             Gm
I've been a fool for holding on
            Cmaj7
I've been a fool for being strong
             F                                Gm
I've been a fool for love and I'll be a fool again (fool again)

                Gm
As soon as the rain stops pouring down
             Cmaj7
As soon as I find some higher ground
         F                                 Cm
I'll be good as new but I can't tell you when

          D#                               F
So, just keep on striking matches until then


🎸 Chorus:
       Gm
'Cause I can't burn you a flame right now
Gm
I can't burn you a flame right now
     A#         F      Gm
I'm too busy seeing the light

Gm
I can't lift you up right now
Gm
I can't lift you up right now
     A#         F      Gm
I'm too busy tryin' to fly

Blow me a kiss and hope for the best

F                                  Gm             D#    F    Gm

Drownin' in tears my eyes were too proud to cry
