Your Witness

Adam Haworth Stephens - Your Witness

Tom: C

Intro: C Fmaj7/C 

C 
You woke and I was your witness 
Fmaj7/C 
You spoke and that's how it came to be 
C 
And the dust was descending 
Fmaj7/C 
It gathered patiently 
C 
on the chairs and tables 
Fmaj7/C 
the rooftops overhead 
C 
The things we should have done 
Fmaj7/C 
The things we should have said 

Am 
The dust on surrender 
G6 
just gathers patiently 
Fmaj7/C 
and I was your witness 
G6 
and that's how it came to be 

C Fmaj7/C 

C 
There goes the distance between us 
Fmaj7/C 
it grows but we don't say a thing 
C 
say "how was your breakfast? 
Fmaj7/C 
did it taste like anything?" 
C 
and my senses have left me 
Fmaj7/C 
left me to myself 
C 
and I take my rest upon 
Fmaj7/C 
way up on the highest shelf 

Am 
The dust on surrender 
G6 
just gathers patiently 
Fmaj7/C 
and I was your witness 
G6 
and that's how it came to be
