Toad the Wet Sprocket – Dam Would Break (Guitar)

Am            Dm                         G                         Am
   Is it this place that makes me fall from you         

Am                Dm              G                             Am
   Forget the words that once rang so true

Am            Dm         G                  Am
Did we expect that life was ever fair, my god

Am             Dm                       G                                     
I sowed a field of rose and reaped a whipping rod

F                                                G
And everything I've held too tight inside

Em
Could make a part of me die

F                                          G
And if my lips could only speak the name

Em
The dam would break

Am            Dm         G                                          Am
  What is this ice that gathers round my heart

Am               Dm                      G                           Am
  To stop the flood of warmth before it even starts

Am                          Dm                   G                  Am
It would make me blind to what I thought would always be

Am            Dm         G                 
The only constant in the world for me

F                                         G       
And every hour of every day I need to

Em
fight from pulling away

F                                             G
And if my mind could only loose the chain

Em
The dam would break

F                                  G        Em
For all the things I hid away

F                                  G
And all the words I could not say

Em
The dam would break
