Intro: G G Em D C G
verse 1
Em D C G
For everything unsaid there is a flourish of my pride
C G
It is deep and dark and wide
C D
I can't tell the weeds from vines
Em D C G
But if I had the strength I'd move the mountains in my mind
C G
But it's taking all my time
C D
Just to start to realize
C G
That I'm not the man I hoped to be
C
And though I'm not alone
G D
I still feel so lone-ly
verse 2
Em D C G
Come Monday I've for-gotten all those promises you said
C G
All your holy words in red
C D
Wreathed in guilt and golden thread
Em D C G
And if I had the strength to be who others say I am
C G
I wouldn't look into my eyes
C D
See the shadow of a man
C G
Well I'm not who they say I've become
C
For I know the things I've said
G D
Won't compare with what I've done
C G C G D C D
No, no, oh, no-o, oo-oh

verse 3
Em D C G
Now all of these mon-strosities, choices I have made
C G
Will not go away
C D
I've made my bed and here I lay
Em D C G
But is there still for-giveness if we know what we have done?
C G
Woe to every single one
C D
Who spared the rod and blamed the son
C G
Well it's not just the day that needs the night
C G D
Seems to me it's in the darkness we can finally see the light
C G C G D C D
Oh, oh, oh, oh-o, oo-oh
