Dm All this time I'd never let you go CG And now the same chains that I've kept you in are holding down my soul Dm I set you up I gave you life I dragged you out the fire CG And now you knocked me down you shut me out and I can see it in your eyes F Somehow you got it in your head that you can make it on your own G You were sheltered loved and fed but you just couldn't leave it alone
[Chorus (repeat x2)] Dm Leave it alone leave it alone CG Leave it alone leave it alone
Dm Well your heart was here resting on my lap CG and I'd do it all again but I'm never coming back Dm Well I know I'm lying lying in the cold CG Yeah there's snow on the ground and if I know myself I'll be leaving down the road F I've been all around the world but I've got nowhere to go G I gave into this lonely life and you can't change me now so
[Chorus + Instrumental]
Dm The ghosts are on the green each and every night CG Oh the distant light is the hardest part to take Dm That's the heart of all my pain lying in the cold CG Oh the distant light in a hue we can't describe still we know
Dm, C, G [x2]
Dm Could it all be over now We've seen it all the while CG There's no dimension to the clouds and the moon and world around Dm That's the heart of all my pain cause I don't wanna go CG Oh the distant light in a hue we can't describe still we know
