Intro:
F Am Bb Dm C

Verse 1:
F                                        Am
There are moments that the words don’t reach
                                    Bb
There is suffering too terrible to name
                                     Dm
You hold your child as tight as you can
   C                           F
And push away the unimaginable
                               Am
The moments when you’re in so deep
                              Bb
It feels easier to just swim down
                      Dm
The Hamiltons move uptown
               C                        F
And learn to live with the unimaginable

                       Am
I spend hours in the garden
                      Bb
I walk alone to the store
                 Dm
And it’s quiet uptown
 C                            F
I never liked the quiet before
                                   Am
I take the children to church on Sunday
                            Bb
A sign of the cross at the door
       Dm
And I pray
    C                            F
That never used to happen before

Chorus 1:
                             Am
If you see him in the street, walking by himself
                           Bb
Talking to himself, have pity
                                        Dm
Philip, you would like it uptown, it’s quiet uptown
      C                               F
He is working through the unimaginable

                           Am
His hair has gone grey he passes every day)
                                     Bb
They say he walks the length of the city
                          Dm
You knock me out, I fall apart
            C      F
Can you imagine?

Bridge:
                    Am
Look at where we are
                   Bb
Look at where we started
                                 Dm
I know I don’t deserve you, Eliza
              C
But hear me out
                  F
That would be enough
                      Am
If I could spare his life
                               Bb
If I could trade his life for mine
                             Dm
He’d be standing here right now
                   C                         F
And you would smile, and that would be enough
                    Dm
I don’t pretend to know
                      Am
The challenges we’re facing
                     Bb                 Bbm
I know there’s no replacing what we’ve lost
              F
And you need time
                  Am
But I’m not afraid
                   Bb
I know who I married
                               Dm
Just let me stay here by your side
C                   F
That would be enough

If you see him in the street, walking her side
                           Bb
Talking by her side, have pity
                                    Dm

See them walking in the park, long after dark
                             Bb
Taking in the sights of the city
                           Dm
Look around, look around, Eliza
        C                             F
They are trying to do the unimaginable

There is a grace too powerful to name
                                    Dm
We push away what we can never understand

We push away the unimaginable
                          Am
They are standing in the garden

She takes his hand   it’s quiet uptown
