0/5 ( votes)

From his "Casualties of Cool" project album along with Ché Aimee Dorval.
(The lyrics are better in context.
 Also, this song is easier to play chord-wise in standard E-flat, transpose +1.)
The Bdim "chords" are actually just the one note.

[VERSE 1]
             Cm
For all your light, you were not delivered
        Ab   Fm                      Cm
Landing hard    amid the bones and myself
         Cm
In I you trusted all your worries and wonders,
             Ab   G           Cm
but you will find   no comfort here.


[CHORUS 1]
Ab                                      Cm
   I built this road and this journey before you -
Ab                                         G
   These bones were men who all fell at my feet.
Eb                                          Cm
   And when you?re tired and afraid, I will hold you,
Eb                          G
   build you up just to tear you apart.
Cm      Bb     Cm        Bdim
   This way, my   child

[CHORUS 2]
Ab                                            Cm
   I?ll take this journey, this road that?s beside you
Ab                                      G
   I?ll give her everything, more than I am
Eb                                         Cm
   And when there?s nothing left burning in - side you,
Eb                                  G
   Your bones will riddle the ground with the rest.
