This is a beautiful song, and these chords sound great acoustically or on a clean
guitar. They can be picked or strummed to add effect as the song goes on. It is in regular
no capo.

Chords:
B – X-2-4-4-4-2---|
G#m – 3-5-5-3-3-3-|
E – 0-2-2-1-0-0---|
F# - 2-4-4-3-2-2--|


Intro – B, G#m, E, F#

B
You breathed infinity into my world
G#m
and time was lost up in a cloud and in a whirl.
E F#
B
We dug a hole in the cool grey earth and lay there for the night.
G#m E
Then you said, "wait for me we'll fly the wind,
F# E F#
B
we'll grow old and you'll be stronger without him" but oh,
G#m E
now my world is at your feet. I was lost and I was found,
F#
but I was alive and now I've drowned.
G#m E B
So now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song
F# E, F#
so they can tell me I was wrong...
G#m
But they weren't there beneath your stare,
E
and they weren't stripped 'till they were bare of
B F#
any bindings from the world outside that room.
G#m
And they weren't taken by the hand
E
and led through fields of naked land
B F#
where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away...
G#m F# E
so I couldn't say "no".

B, G#m, E, F#

B G#m
You sighed and I was lost in you, weeks could've past for all I knew.
E F#
You were the blanket of the over-world and so I couldn't say,
B G#m E
I wouldn't say "no". But they all said, "you're too young to even know,
F# E F#
just don't let it grow and you'll be stronger without him"
B G#m E
but oh, now, my world is at your feet. I was lost and I was found,

F#
but I was alive and now I've drowned.
G#m E B
So now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song
F# E, F#
so they can tell me I was wrong...

G#m
But they weren't there beneath your stare,
E
and they weren't stripped 'till they were bare of
B F#
any bindings from the world outside that room.
G#m
And they weren't taken by the hand
E
and led through fields of naked land
B F#
where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away...
G#m
But they weren't there beneath your stare,
E
and they weren't stripped 'till they were bare of
B F#
any bindings from the world outside that room.
G#m
And they weren't taken by the hand
E
and led through fields of naked land
B F#
where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away...
G#m F# E
so I couldn't say "no".
