Intro x4
C F
So I'm standing at your doorway
Am G C
With my stomach all tangled and tight
F
Have it your way
Am G(pause) C
Oh God, where are you tonight?
F Am
Cause I don't know what I'm doing here
G C
Or where to begin
F Am
So take a deep breath
G C F Am G
But darling don't let me in
C F
A thousand times we've said
Am G C
I'm sorry, it's over again
F Am
I can't live like this, feel like this
G C
In my own skin
F Am
It all seems so degrading
G C(finger pick)
And the mourning such sin
F (finger pick) Am (finger pick)
Your face just like a child
G(pause) C F Am G C F Am G
Darling don't let me in
C F
And we laugh just like children
Am G C
In waiting in sheets on your bed
F Am
Why we secretly pray
G C
Like we're mourning the dead
F Am
And you tell me you're so weary
G C
I know, I'm weary too
F Am
Hold back a tear
G(pause) C F Am G
Oh darling, what are we to do?
Instrumental: Violin solo (I think it sounds fine if you play the intro 4 or 5 times
through gradually getting louder)
C F
And the wine and the rain
Am G
And the feel of your skin
C
Against mine
F Am G
I'm swimming, I'm flying, I'm dying
C F
This face and this fear
Am G C
This stay with me, please stay with me my dear
F
This hand
Am
This glove
G(pause) C F Am G C F
This only thing I love
Am
This losing
G
This losing
C
This losing
F
