Intro: A7+  C#m7  A7+  C#m7  D7+  C#m7  D7+  F#m7

A7+    C#m7
Fast asleep
      A7+     C#m7
She's next to me
    D7+       C#m7
Her heart, it beats
    D7+  F#m7
So steadily
    A7+       C#m7
Her hopes and fears
    A7+     C#m7
And all her dreams
    D7+     C#m7
She puts in me
   D7+     F#m7
So trustingly

( A7+  C#m7 )

    A7+                                 C#m7
The weight of love is more than all the world
  D7+                           F#m7
Requiring a strength I can't provide
    D7+                           F#m7
But gravity, love strangely may defy
   E7                     A7+ C#m7
If only I was not so terrified

( A7+  C#m7  D7+  C#m7  D7+  F#m7 )

     A7+       C#m7
I've seen her smile
     A7+      C#m7
I've made her cry
     D7+    C#m7
I've been embraced
     D7+    F#m7
I've been denied
    A7+       C#m7
And all these things
  A7+     C#m7
A symptom of
   D7+      C#m7      A7+     F#m7
A stumbling towards a perfect love

( A7+  C#m7 )

    A7+                                 C#m7
The weight of love is more than all the world
  D7+                           F#m7
Requiring a strength I can't provide
    D7+                           F#m7
But gravity, love strangely may defy
   E7                     D7+ C#m7
If only I was not so terrified

( D7+  C#m7  C#7 )

      Bm7
These doubts that are arising
          F#m
They've become so paralyzing
     A7+
Am I what she wants
     D7+
Am I what she needs
                                 Am   Dm7
Or am I just a letdown she can't see

( Am  Dm7  F  G  F  G )

   Am      Dm7
My burning heart
   Am     Dm7
Oh how it yearns
   G    F
To be intrigued
   G     F
At every turn
     Am       Dm7
I've tried so hard
   Am       Dm7
To walk the line
    G       F        G    F   A7+ C#m7
But nothing keeps me satisfied

    A7+                                 C#m7
The weight of love is more than all the world
  D7+                           F#m7
Requiring a strength I can't provide
    D7+                           F#m7
But gravity, love strangely may defy
   E7                     D7+ C#m7
If only I was not so terrified
