Song lyrics:
Intro
A2 E/G# G6 D/F# Esus E Esus E (x2)
Verse
A2 E/G# G6 D/F# A2 E/G# G6 D/F#
Well I sat down next to a photograph, tried my best almost made her laugh
A2 D/F# Bsus A2 D/F# G6 G/B Cmaj7
She was my toughest crowd. There in the way was a mountain up in the clouds
A2 E/G# G6 D/F# A2 E/G# G6 D/F#
Well I can’t sleep and I’m not in love, and I can’t speak without messing up
A2 F#m7 Bsus A2 D/F# G6 G/B
Eyes tell of what’s behind. Her’s showed the way to a long and a lonely
C2 Em7 D C2 Em7 D2 D
climb. But through failure I’ll proceed. She’ll see how far I’ve come
Bsus Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A C/E D/F# E/G#
And it’s you and me in the sun and sea. I’ll offer my heart to Yours
Bsus Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A C/E D/F# G6 Cmaj7 Bsus
It seems to me, no mystery, it isn’t so I’ll try hard to speak

C2 D Bsus CM7 Bsus A G
Verse2
A2 E/G# G6 D/F# A2 E/G# G6 D/F#
Well I sat down next to a living hell, tried my best until I struck out
A2 F#m Bsus A2 D/F# G6 G/B C2
Movement is not mine, I stood in the way, pretending that I was the vine
Em7 D C2 Em7 D2 D
But no failure would proceed, from a mouth that drinks its wine
Bsus Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A C/E D/F# E/G#
And it’s not me, not my sanctity, these aren’t my words to you
Bsus Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A C/E D/F# G6 Cmaj7 Bsus
It’s all clear when its not here, so clear, so I’ll try not to speak
