D
Perhaps it is fitting
C Em
The sky heavy and spitting at the ground
D
The sun hid above us
C D
With a grip on my breath it had found
C G
I’d let it out slow as you stood to go
D Bm Em
And it rose high just as I slipped down
G
Then I whispered your name
D B Em
Knowing well you would not turn around
[Chorus]
D
We stand at the door
C
Like the holy make war
G D Em
Both of us sure we are right
C
We move through it unseen
G Em
For the darkness between us
D G
But I mean to leave on the light
[Verse 2]
D
I want to let go of
C Em
All I think I know of how
D
Our story unwinds
C D
And might turn back to find us somehow
C G
We’ve both turned away when wisdom would say
D Bm Em
We’ve squandered forgiveness and time
G
And all they would allow
D B Em
If I could offer both of us mine
[Chorus]
D
We stand at the door
C
Like the holy make war
G D Em
Both of us sure we are right
C
We move through it unseen
G Em
For the darkness between us
D G
But I mean to leave on the light
[Bridge]
F
What held us together
Am G
Lay like a feather in my hand
F E7
Not enough weight now for flight
Am
Or the freedom to land
C
We each take from the other
Em F
Now struggle is all that we share
It’s less than I am
Em D
And more than I think I can bear
[Chorus]
D
We stand at the door
C
Like the holy make war
G D Em
Both of us sure we are right
C
We move through it unseen
G Em
For the darkness between us
D Em
But I mean to leave on the light
D G
But I mean to leave on the light
