Intro: C C G
[Verso 1]
C
I would stare at the sun
G
If it'd help the ones I love
C
Though I'd burn in my skull
G
I would smile to see them well
Am7 G
I've got this weight in my lungs
[Verso 2]
C
And I would share my own blood
G
If it'd help the ones I love
C
Though I'd shrivel like a plum
G
I would smile to see them grow
Am7 G
I've got this weight in my lungs
Am7 G
From filling 'em up
[Refrão]
C C D G
I'm driving away
Em
From my father's house
C D G
On a beautiful day
Em
And there's no one out
C G
I'm running from you
C G
I am running from me
C G
I am running from you
Am7
From you

You

You
[Verso 3]
C
And so I make sourdough on the counter
G
Like he showed me
C
Though I taste his loneliness
G
In the crust of every loaf
Am7 G
I've got this weight in my mouth
Am7 G
But I'm keeping it down
