Intro – B, A♭m, E, F♯

BYou breathed infinity into my world
A♭mand time was lost up in a cloud and in a whirl.
E                                                      F♯
We dug a hole inB the cool grey earth and lay there for the night.
Then you said, A♭m"wait for me we'lEl fly the wind,
                 F♯                       E               F♯
we'll grow oldB and you'll be stronger without him" but oh,
now my world A♭mis at your feet. I was lost and I wasE found,
but I was alive anF♯d now I've drowned.
A♭mSo now EI will be waiting for the world to hBear my song
so they can tell meF♯ I was wrong...       E          F♯
But they weren't there beneA♭math your stare,
and they weren't stripped 'tiEll they were bare of
any bindingBs from the world outside that room.            F♯
And they weren'tA♭m taken by the hand
and led through Efields of naked land
where any preB-conceived ideas were blownF♯ away...
so I cA♭mouldn'F♯t sayE "no".

B  A♭m  E  F♯

You sigBhed and I was lost in you, weeks A♭mcould've past for all I knew.
EYou were the blanket of the over-world aF♯nd so I couldn't say,
I wouldn't say "Bno". But they all A♭msaid, "you're tEoo young to even know,
just don't let iF♯t grow and you'lEl be strF♯onger without him"
but oBh, now, my A♭mworld is at your feet. I wEas lost and I was found,

but I was aF♯live and now I've drowned.
A♭mSo now IE will be waiting for the worBld to hear my song
so they can tF♯ell me I was wrong.E.. F♯

But they weren't there beneA♭math your stare,

And they weren'tA♭m taken by the hand
and led through Efields of naked land
