Gone

I've fallen face amoung the ground

Im losing at the speed of sound

Im hoping you can hold me down

All the same, Im a broken ship without a sail

Bb Eb
Like when we went walking through backyards
Gm
asking what is in store for us
Am7

my back up against a wall
Am7 Bb
My lips on your brow

Hey baby you can hold me down

Verse 3:
Eb
Oh little love
Gm
Im searching for a plot of ground
Am7 Bb
I know that you can calm me down
Eb
broken boy
Gm
yet to find a way around
Am7
a dark and ever growing cloud
Bb
that has him always looking down
Eb
her voice is like the morning sun
Gm
her touch is like a burning flare
Am7
the hope that hides behind the cloud
Bb
returns to me when she is there
Eb Gm Am7
I was climbing up out of a well
Bb (Fm)
while we were
Chorus:
Eb Gm
Getting lost in the pillows
Am7 Bb
feeling fine and then getting sicker
Eb Gm
there you were but where was I?
Am7 Bb
Hold me close baby hold me high
Eb Gm
finding warmth beneath the covers
Am7 Bb
when I had nothing we still had each other
Eb Gm
we were alone, outside of time
Am7 Bb
so hold me close while I start to climb
