Intro: A  

           D     A 
I was heartbroken 
       F#m                E 
When I met you the first time 
         D      A 
I didn't mean to 
             F#m                E 
To treat you wrong, to be unkind 
           D    A 
I was a stranger 
                   F#m                  E 
Waiting around for love to show its face 
         D    A 
I had it in me 
             F#m                        E 
But it just kept falling so out of place 
    (A x2) 
And then 
  
        D   A 
I was a liar 
              F#m                  E 
I did it to myself for way too long 
            D               A 
Then I grew tired and I can't 
                 F#m                    E 
I can't keep the pace, it's doing me wrong, so I went 
       Bm 
I went soul-searching, 
      A                 D                       E 
I was cloud-hunting, my arms carried every stone 
                 Bm 
I climbed to the highest mountain, 
           A                        D                  E 
So I could lay the burden where the shadows meet their bones 
            Bm            D              E 
I'll go and drown on that wild sea on my own 
Now will you hold on to the other side of the rope 
And save me? 

A 
I've got something in here 
Someone who cares 
Is this something you want 
Now do you want it? 
Hidden under my hair 
You were shaping your fingers 
Like an old broken comb 
Now do you want it? 
I've got something in here 
Now why would you care? 
Is this something you want 
Now do you want it? 
Hidden under my hair 
You were shaping your fingers 
Like an old broken comb 
Now do you want it? 
Like an old broken comb 
                A 
Now do you want it? 
How many of you are hidden out there? 
You've been watching us all along 
Now did I see you waiting out there? 

           D     A 
I was heartbroken 
       F#m                E 
When I met you the first time 
         D               A 
I didn't mean to hurt you 
              F#m                    E 
Yeah I was so lost and out of my mind, so I went 
       Bm 
I went soul-searching, 
      A                 D                       E 
I was cloud-hunting, my arms carried every stone 
                 Bm 
I climbed to the highest mountain, 
           A                        D                  E 
So I could lay the burden where the shadows meet their bones 
                 Bm 
So I went,I went soul-searching, 
      A                 D                         E 
I was cloud-hunting, my heart slipping through my hands 
                 Bm 
I climbed to the highest mountain, 
           A                        D                  E 
So I could lay the burden where the shadows meet the man 
            Bm            D             E 
I'll go and drown on that wild sea again 
Now won't you at least try to understand 
And save me, save me, save me?
