[Verse]
Em D* Am7 x3
 
Em           D*   Am7
   If I was only wise enough
Em         D*     Am7
   To know everything
Em            D*   Am7
   sure and true about myself
Em            D*     Am7
   You would not be here
Em               D*         Am7
   What have I brought you to, my love
Em                D*       Am7
   that you have followed me?
Em        D*      Am7
   It is all my heart is worth
 
[Turnaround]
    C                  D     Am7
And more than I would ask of you
 
[Verse]
Em D* Am7 x2
 
Em        D*    Am7
   But I was afraid of
Em       D*          Am7
   of a world where you
Em           D*       Am7
   did not exist, an empty space
 
[Turnaround]
C             D         Am7
   I was not walking through
 
[Verse]
Em                D*      Am7
   And you were there between myself
Em          D*        Am7
   And the darkened wings
Em               D*     Am7
   You took the pieces of our lives
 
[Turnaround]
C               D        Am7
   And made us something new
 
[Chorus]
    G         D      Cmaj7  C Cmaj7 C
Now you don't see me trying
    G         D      Cmaj7  C Cmaj7 C
Now you don't see me trying
    G         D      Am7
Now you don't see me trying
 
[Turnaround]
C                 D        Am7
   don't see me trying, do you?
 
[Verse]
Em D* Am7 x2
 
Em            D*         Am7
   So if you want to surrender
Em      D*       Am7
   Then I will too
Em              D*      Am7
   If you want me to carry on
 
[Turnaround]
C       D      Am7
   then I will do
 
[Verse]
Em          D*           Am7
   And the night falls around us
Em           D*   Am7
   pressing us apart
Em           D*        Am7
   with the weight of silence
 
[Turnaround Altered]
C              D       Am7   Em*
   Such is my love for you
    C
For you

Emaj7                   Cmaj7*           D*     D**       Cmaj7
      The heart of the matter, that the both of us can't hide
Emaj7             Cmaj7*           D*     D**     Cmaj7
      beats on against us with the rhythm of the tide
Emaj7                  Cmaj7*   D*   D**        Cmaj7
      And through this apathy, wider than the sky
Emaj7             Cmaj7*          D*      D**    Cmaj7
      I'm feeling everything like nothing in my life
Emaj7             Cmaj7*          D*      D**    Cmaj7
      I'm feeling everything like nothing in my life
 
Emaj7 Cmaj7* Emaj7 Cmaj7* Emaj7 Cmaj7* D* D** Cmaj7 x2
 
Emaj7 Cmaj7* Emaj7 Cmaj7* Emaj7 Cmaj7* D* D** Cmaj7 x2 with oohs
 
Emaj7 Cmaj7* Emaj7 Cmaj7* Emaj7 Cmaj7* D* D** Cmaj7 x4
              if i was only wise enough
to know everything sure and true about myself,
you would not be here.

what have i brought you to, my love, that you have followed me?
it is all my heart is worth
and more than i would ask of you.

but i was afraid of a world where you did not exist;
an empty sp-ce i was not walking through.
and you were there between myself
and the darkened wings;
you took the pieces of our lives
and made us something new

but now you don’t see me trying, do you?

so if you want to surrender, then i will too;
or if you want me to carry on, then i will do.
and the night falls around us,
pressing us apart
with the weight of silence –

such is my love for you.

the heart of the matter, that the both of us can’t hide,
beats on against us
with the rhythm of the tide;
and through this apathy,
wider than the sky,
i’m feeling everything like nothing in my life.
i’m feeling everything
like nothing
in my life.
