Chords

[Intro] G D G C Em G Em D G [Verse 1]
     G                 D      G
When you walked in, I just stood still

            G              D      G
I said, I'm sorry, love, I have no will

      C                Em        G
If I try to move, I'll break and spill

       G              D           G
What's left of me, my weight will kill
[Verse 2]
     G               D        G
If I die inside this bitter shell

        C         Em      G
It will be upon a frozen lake

    G                   D          G
My knees will break, my breath will swell

    Em             D          G
The snow around my blood will paint
[Chorus]
C
Lord, I know my timing's off

    C                              G     D   G
And all the earth is ragged to the bone, oh, oh

C
Tired is the burning sea

     C                             G      D  G
That calls me to the bottom like a stone, oh oh

    D           G
And I'm sinking alone
[Intrumental] Em D G Em D G [Verse 3]
G               D       G
Now inside this blinded bend

     Em                D          G
I'll pour the ink down through my pen

   C              Em      G
In sentences that will defend

   Em        D      G
My misery until the end
[Chorus]
C
Lord, I know my timing's off

     C                             G     D   G
And all the earth is ragged to the bone, oh, oh

C
Tired is the burning sea

      C                            G      D  G
That calls me to the bottom like a stone, oh oh

    D             G
And I'm sinking alone

D             G
I'm sinking alone

D             G
I'm sinking alone
