[Intro]
Cm D# G# Gm Fm
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
Cm D#
Star, beginning to fade
G# Gm Fm
Lined from the light that you had all those years now you live in the shade
Cm D#
Oh, oh lonely years
G# Gm Fm
Spending up there with the people who care for your problems or fears
Cm D# G# Gm Fm
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Cm D#
Feel, feel that they’ve lied
G# Gm Fm
The whip that you get the cause of regret and the death that’s inside
Cm D#
So now, beginning to see
G# Gm Fm
The world moves the same at the turn of the man and his own misery
[Chorus]
G# D#
And I need to share it out
Fm
I cannot bear it all
Cm
The weight is coming down on me
[Verse 2]
Cm D#
Shout (shout), with moments to steal
G# Gm Fm
Makes you a man full of imperfect thought but at least you’ll be real
Cm D#
Come home, going home free
G# Gm Fm
For useless is time that's spent all alone so you’re coming with me
[Chorus]
G# D#
And I need to share it out
Fm
I cannot bear it all
Cm
The weight is coming down on me
G# D#
And you, you need to understand
Fm
That I need a helping hand
Gm G G#
Like atlas holding up the earth
