Capo 1
Cmaj7 G D G
Cmaj7 G D G
cold is the night without you here
Cmaj7 G D G
just your absence ringing in my ears
Cmaj7 G D Em7
hard is the heart that feels no fear
Cmaj7 G D G
without the bad the good disappears
Cmaj7 G D G
long is the road that leads me home
Cmaj7 G D G
and longer still when I walk alone
Cmaj7 G D Em7
bitter is the thought of all that time
Cmaj7 G D G
spent searching for something I'll never find
Cmaj7 G Em7 D
take this burden away from me
Cmaj7 G D G
and bury it before it buries me
Cmaj7 G D G
many are the days I've wanted to cease
Cmaj7 G D G
lay myself down and find some relief
Cmaj7 G D Em7
heavy is the head that gets no sleep
Cmaj7 G D G
we carry our lives around in our memories
Cmaj7 G Em7 D
take away this apathy
Cmaj7 G Em7 D
and bury it before it buries me
Cmaj7 G D G
steady is the hand that's come to terms
Cmaj7 G D G
with the lessons it has had to learn
Cmaj7 G D Em7
I've seen the things that I must do
Cmaj7 G D G
but Lord this road is meant for two
Cmaj7 G D G
so I am waiting here for you
Cmaj7 G Em7 D
take my hand and set me free
Cmaj7 G Em7 D
take my burdens and bury them deep
Cmaj7 G Em7 D
take my burden away from me
Cmaj7 G D
and bury it before
Cmaj7 G D
bury it before
Cmaj7 G D G
bury it before it buries me
