The Gates

Ab        F#
You held her and said
                          C#m              Emaj7
"I'm not worthy, but I'll try to be a better man."
                        B
"If you don't have the time then leave
              C#m                               Emaj7          B
I've been waiting all year for something that was never really here."
F#             C#m
"Well you were never really here."

Emaj7
Your nose and your throat
    F#/E  Edim   F#dim/E  C#dim
and everything that's in between
Emaj7      F#/E
Two eyes just like mine
Emaj7
A pair I wish could've seen
          B                C#m
The times you were the best you could be with me
   B           C#m
We were never meant to be
                        E (rings out)
We were happening

E                                 C#m
You're a shallow hole and everyone can see
                 B                 C#m    B    C#m      B
If I called you now would you be there to answer me?
C#m                                          B
Cause I don't know if I would answer you
C#m                                      E
When I cross the gates and I find you

Ab          F#
Remember you said
                          C#m       Emaj7
You're so nervous you're so tired

Cheap talk, unsteady walk
                    B
For such a pretty liar
              C#m
Finding old souls to cast a mold
              Emaj7     B
And then set fire
   C#m                   E
And if you want I could take you higher and higher

E                                 C#m
You're a shallow hole and everyone can see
                 B                 C#m    B    C#m      B
If I called you now would you be there to answer me?
C#m                                          B
Cause I don't know if I would answer you
C#m                                      E
When I cross the gates and I find you

E     B     E

E
I don't know what I've been told

The road I walked was paved with gold
C#m          B
But oh, you didn't want to go

E
I don't know what I've been told
The road I walked was paved with gold
C#m          E            B                 Amaj7        B
But oh, you didn't want to go

              C#m             B        A      B
Well I don't know if I would answer you
