GbmAEmG There's no more wind to be found in the sails GbmAEmG Hands full of fallen stars and comet tails
GbmAEmG Rivers of sand unentwined through my hands GbmAEmG To know what they've seen well my burden's all pale
GbmA I'll make an hourglass from my fingers GbmG I know I'm only passing through
GbmAEmD I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all GbmAD I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone DA Cause I wanna know that I'm steady on my feet GbmEmGbm I don't want to pretend so peace will be real to me
GbmAEmG There's no respite to be found in the waves GbmAEmG Each rise and retreat will scrub the blood away
GbmA I'll make an hourglass from my fingers GbmG I know I'm only passing through
GbmAEmD I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all GbmAD I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone DA Cause I wanna know that I'm steady on my feet GbmEmGbm I don't want to pretend so peace will be real to me

GbmAEmD I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all GbmAD I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone
GbmAEmD I don't want to pretend that I'm stronger for it all GbmAD I don't want to pretend that the sadness is gone DA Cause I wanna know that I'm steady on my feet GbmEmGbm I don't want to pretend so peace will be real to me
