Verse 1 Chords:
Cmaj F Cmaj
some escape some door to open
F Cmaj
this path seems the blackest but I guess it's the soonest
F Cmaj
but there in the clearing I know you'll be wearing
F
your young aching smile and waving your hand
Chorus Chords:
G F G
can't go with my heart when I can't feel what's in it I
F
thought you'd come over but for some reason you didn't
Am Em F
glass on the pavement under my shoe
F G C
without you is all my life amounts to
Verse 2: use verse 1 Chords
a final sleep no words from my cutting
mouth to your ear or taut wicked pinches
from my fingers to your bitter face that i can't heal
Chorus Chords:
I know tomorrow you will be
somewhere in London living with someone
you've got some kind of family there to turn to
and that's more than I could ever give you

Verse 3: Use verse 1 chords
A chance for calm
a hope for freedom
outlet from my cold solitary kingdom
by the forest of our spring stay
where you walked away
Chorus Chords:
and left a bleeding part of me
empty and bothered
watching the water
quiet in the corner
numb and falling through
without you what does my life amount to
