Intro: G – Bm – C  x2  Em – D – G – D - G

 G      Bm       C       G         Bm                 C  
Lock it up my pretender, I thought I would know you better
 G      B7    Em     D         C
Like a child, high above the weather 
G           D                             G 
I saw you sinking with the weight of the world
 G        Bm                    C 
All your cuts are getting deep now
 G           Bm                  C   
And all you want to do is sleep now
G          B7      Em D      C
I could go on, but I don’t really see how
 G           D                       G
And here we are at the edge of the world

Chorus
 D           B7                           Em 
Like a bird you come to my window in the dead of night
                  C                        C7
To see if were alright, moonlight in your eyes
 
And then you’ll go…

G   Bm  C  
Ooooo…  oooo…
G   Bm  C 
Ooooo…  oooo…

G – B7 – Em – D – C

G             Bm           C 
It seems like so long ago that…
G             Bm                 C   
I watched you pack it up and go there…
G           B7           Em    D    C
And still I cry cause I don’t know why..
G                D                       G 
We could never stand the weight of the world
