Dm/C   C
More than I had in mind
            Dm/C   C
More than I wish I knew
             F       Em7
And now it’s near on me
     G           Dm7
Some rush of red fear
           Dm/C  C             Dm/C   C
And my worst old times look fine from here

[Verse 2]
           Dm/C        C
I know you walked this route
              Dm/C    C
And you might help me out
                F       Em7
You said what's done is done
        G              Dm7
I can't turn the hand 'round
        Dm/C C       Dm/C     C
But still it looks a long way down

[Chorus]
F  Em7         Dm7              C
Oh man, was it that much better then?
        Bb                  Dm/C         C
We were left alone, we were proud of our pain
F      Em7       Dm7             C
And so I want to walk out in the night
Bb                 Dm/C        C
See the wide young river flood rain

[Verse 3]
             Dm/C         C
We're not on one straight line
          Dm/C    C
I made my own way through
             F          Em7
And when the track goes cold
     G              Dm7
I'll know that it's true
          Dm/C     C         Dm/C    C
That rebirth won't work like it used to

[Chorus]
F  Em7         Dm7              C
Oh man, was it that much better then?
        Bb                  Dm/C         C
We were left alone, we were proud of our pain
F      Em7       Dm7             C
And so I want to walk out in the night
Bb                 Dm/C        C
See the wide young river flood rain

[Interlude]
F G x2 Em7

F
And I can't let go
              G   F
Of a lot I've left

I'm holding nothing
           G   Em7
But what I kept

And it all got dimmer
                 F
Each passing step

And I need you with me
                 G   F
And you read the writ

Are you now insisting
                G  Em7
Is it not worth it?

But I've got no option
                         F   C
I inherited this and I'm overcome

F C x2

[Outro]
F      Em7           Dm7               C
That's that, we're a long way from the past
        Bb              Dm/C       C
I'll be better off in a year or in two
