[Eb] [Abm] [Db]
[Eb] [Bb] [Ebm]
[Eb]
Is it [Abm] this place [Db] that makes me fall [Eb] from you?
Forget [Abm] the words [Db] that once rang so [Ab] true Did [Eb] we [Ab] expect [Db] that life was ever [Eb] fair?
Oh, dear, [Bbm] my [Eb] God I [Ab] sort of feel the rose [Db] and reed do a thing
[B] right And everything felt [Db] too tight
I [Bbm] couldn't make a bottom [B] with that And if my lips could [Db] only speak the name
[Bbm] The dam will break [Ebm] later on, [Db] later [Eb] on
[Db]
[Eb] What [Ebm] is [Ab] this ice [Db] that gathers round [Ebm] my heart?
[Eb] Stop the [Ab] blood and warmth [Db] before it even [Ebm] starts It would make [Ab] me blind [Db] to what I thought
[Eb] would [Ebm] always be The [Ab] only constant in [Db] the world for [B] me
And every hour of every [Db] day need [Bbm] to fight for [Gb] the way
And if [B] my mind could [Db] only lose shape [Bbm] The dam would break [Ebm] later [Bbm] on, [Eb] later on
[Db]
[Ebm] Later [Bbm] on, [B] later [Gb] on
[Db]
[B] It's sucking
[Db] away [Bbm]
[B] all the words I could [Db] not say
[Bbm] The dam will break [Ebm] later [Bbm] on, [Db] later [Eb] on
[Gb] [Db]
[Ebm] Later on, [Dbm] later [Gb] on
[Db] [Ebm] [Eb]
[Ebm] [Eb]
