Verse
G C/G G
Been so many days of longing now
Em D6/F#
Why should it ever be this far
Am
Where I get frightened
G D6/F# G C/G D6/F#
I could never gather birds enough to carry 'round your heart
G C/G G
But I see traces of your thoughts out here
Em D6/F#
I see a sight; I hear a sound
Am G D6/F#
I only comfort in the brittleness of days when
G C/G D6/F#
I can hold what I just found
Chorus
C G D6/F# Em
It's in the untired eyes of the laughing child
C G D6/F#
And the dirtiest sweater he owns
C G
Early, sun-warmed pine
D6/F# Em
And all those life-like sins
C G D6/F#
That will pull out the memories to show
I'm not leavin' alone
G C/G G C/G
I'm not leavin' alone
