intro
A Bm F#m E x2
AIf all my lovers F#msing the big woErds
AAnd all my brotheF#mrs keep them smEall
BmThen I get lost in the diEfference, between their whisper and the echo of their Acall
ASo I am headed foF#mr the ocean, E
Ato let the sea-smF#moke guide me inE.
BmI'll give up my belongingEs and questions, they only ever taught me to bF#megin.
ASo I will not turn around, as I step up to the train,
BmBut I'll hear it when youF#m call my naEme.
AAnd I will not be the sound, of your roof under the rain,
BmBut I'll hear it when youF#m call my naEme.
ASo I am taking ofF#mf my wrist watcEh,
Ato let the time mF#move how I pleasEe.
BmTo let my day be guided bEy the sunlight, through mornings knell and twilights sAoft release
ASo if you want toF#m get to know meE,
Afollow my smile iF#mnto it's curvesE
BmAll these lines are born Ein sorrows and in pleasures, and every man endF#ms up with
the face that he deserves.
ASo I will not give you bread, as you reach out from your cage,
BmBut I'll hear it when yoF#mu call my name. E
AAnd I will not give applause, as you step off of the stage,
BmBut I'll hear it when yoF#mu call my name. E
AThere's a river rF#munning through Ethe city
AGently reminding F#mme what's what.E
BmOf course, you are inviteEd to come with me, but I don't think that's really whaAt you want.
AI think you want F#ma world that wiEll hold you,
AThrough security,F#m and gravity, aEnd love
BmAnd I can't think of anyoEne who'd blame you, and I can't think of how tF#mhat'd be enough.
ASo I won't come back around, when you've cursed the ground you've tamed,
BmBut I'll hear it when youF#m call my naEme
AAnd when you realize once I'm gone, that I never really came,
BmOh, I'll hear it when youF#m call my naEme.
AAnd when the burden of the sun, reveals to you it's pain,
BmOh, I'll hear it when yoF#mu call my name. E
AAnd when you realize that you're wrong, but you still give me all the blame,
BmI'll hear it when you caF#mll my name. E
