Tuning: E A D G B E

I put a capo on the first fret, but it sounds fine anywhere. Also, each chord is played for about two measures, so a total of 8 beats.

^G There are moments that the words don't ^Dreach There is suffering too terrible to ^Emname

You hold your child as tight as you c^Can And push away the unimagin^Gable

The moments when you're in so ^Ddeep It feels easier to just swim ^Emdown

The Hamiltons move up^Ctown And learn to live with the unimagin^Gable

I spend hours in the garden ^D I walk alone to the ^Emstore

And it's quiet uptown ^C I never liked the quiet bef^Gore

I take the children to church on ^DSunday A sign of the cross at the ^Emdoor

And I pray ^C That never used to happen bef^Gore

If you see him in the street

^DWalking by himself, talking to himself Have ^Empity

Phillip, you would like it uptown, it's q^Cuiet uptown He is working through the unimagin^Gable

His hair has gone gray

He ^Dpasses every day They say he walks the length of the ^Emcity

You knock me out, I fall a^Cpart Can you imagine? ^G

Look at where we are

^DLook at where we started ^EmI know I don't deserve you, Eliza

^CBut hear me out, that would be enough ^GIf I could spare his life

^DIf I could trade his life for ^Emmine He'd be standing here right ^Cnow

And you would smile

And that would be enough ^G I don't pretend to ^Dknow the challenges we're f^Emacing

I know there's no repl^Cacing what we've lost And you need ^Gtime

But I'm not afraid ^D

I know who I married

^EmJust let me stay here by your ^Cside That would be enough ^G

If you see him in the street

^DWalking by her side

Talking by her side

Have ^Empity

Eliza, do you like it uptown

It's q^Cuiet uptown He is trying to do the unimagin^Gable

See them walking in the park, ^Dlong after dark Taking in the sights of the ^Emcity

Look around, look around, El^Ciza They are trying to do the unimagin^Gable

There are moments that the words don't r^Deach There is a grace too powerful to ^Emname

We push away what we can never under^Cstand We push away the unimagin^Gable

They are standing in the garden ^D Alexander by Eliza's s^Emide

She takes his han^Cd It's quiet up^Gtown

Forgiveness ^D

Can you imagine?

^EmForgiveness ^C

Can you imagine?

^GIf you see him in the street ^DWalking by her side

Talking by her side

Have ^Empity C G*(one stroke) They are going through the unimaginable
