[Bm] The names of [A] my past is chilling
No, [A] I was carefully building [G] the mask I was wearing
[G] Two [A] years swearing I'd tear [Bm] it all
I sat in [A] the dark, [Bm] explaining
[E] To myself [A] that I'm straining too hard for feelings
[G] I knelt to [A] my [Bm] knees and called [A] myself Jezebel
I [G] don't believe
[D] Before I say that new [G] vows we've made
[A] Weigh like a stone in my heart
[D] Family [G] is family
Don't let this tear [Bm] us apart
You lie [A] there and innocent baby
[Bm] I [E] feel like a thief who is raiding [G] your home
[A]
[G] Entering, breaking, taking, [Bm] entering
I know [A] your feelings are tender
[Bm] [E] But inside you the [G] embers still glow
But I'm [E] a shadow
[G] Lonely, [E] your bed of [Bm] blackened coal
On [E] my own turn the bell [G] won't ding
[D] I'm not [G] saying I'm replacing [A] love
But some [G] other word
[D] To [G] describe the sacred time [A] I found [G] me
[D] I'm just saying [G] me [A] mistaken in love
A [G] thousand blue words
[E] And for that mistake I've [G] caused you such [A] pain
That I damn [Em] that word
[G] I've no more ways [D] to hide
[G] That I'm a bit of a sore [A] leg
And empty [B] playing [Bm] sad
[A]
[G] [A] [G]
[A] [Bm] [A] [Bm]
[D] I'm [G] [A]
[G] [D] not [G] saying I'm replacing [A] love
But [G] some other word
[D] To describe [G] the sacred [A] time I found [G] me
[D] I'm not [G] saying love deflated
[A] No, it's a [G] powerful word
[E] Inspired by a strong desire
To bow [G] myself to you
[D] Oh, how I wish that we never [A] had tried
[G] To [D] be men and his wife
We'd leave our lives [A] into the light
But [G] above our [D] eyes
[G]
[A] Yeah
