[Verse 1]
Gonna Alay my Gburden Ddown
Lay my Abody Gin the Dground
Bsus2 Cold Bmclay agCainst my skin
But GI don't care at Dall
Can't seem to Afind my Gpiece of Dmind
So with the Aearth I'll Glay enDtwined
Bsus2Six Bmfeet Cunderground
My Gfeet are warm and Ddry
[Chorus 1]
When Asus4I get to the Aother side
I'll Asus2put your picture Away up high
But Asus4I'm not coming Aback to you
It's Asus2just too Amfar A D
[Verse 2]
If I was Acast off Gon the Dsea
Would you Acome and Glook forD me
Or Bsus2would Bmyou just Clet me sink
BenGeath the waves so Dblue
What if AI had Glearned to Dfly
Fly all Anight till Gday drew Dnigh
Bsus2Touch Bmdown upoCn a branch and
GScan the crowd for Dyou
[Chorus 2]
When I Asus4touch my feet Aon the land
I'll Asus2kiss your lips and Atake your hand
But Asus4you know I'm not Ahere to stay
It's Asus2just too Amfar
[Bridge]
ADarling can't you Ghear me cry
My Fbones are broke, my Amtongue is tied
The Cmoon is swaying Gback and forth
AA#gainst the navy sAky is all EmI can see
My Fbody is trembling Amon my knees
Just Chave a little Gmercy on me
A#Run away andA hide D
[Verse 3]
When I Asleep the Gangels Dsing
But I cAannot Ghear a Dthing
Bsus2Eyes Bmclose Cdreaming of the
GBetter days gone Dby
When I Awake the Gtrumpets Dplay
And I'm Astanding Gat the Dgates
Bsus2Fall Bmdown and Cjoy
I Gknow my race has just been Dwon
[End]
When Asus4I was young my Amomma would say
Well Asus2life is hard, but Athat's OK
If Asus4you can make it Athrough the day
It's Asus2not that Amfar
No, it's not that Dfar
