Song:
A Asus2 C
Walking alone tonight
A Asus2 C
‘Cause I’ve only got room for two
A Asus2 C
Me and my burdened black heart
A Asus2 C
It’s all we know how to do
A Asus2 C
Yet I look for a bigger bang
A Asus2 C
Than the kind I continually see
A Asus2 C
Sick of all this inertia
A Asus2 Am
Won’t you mend me?
(Play intro)
Lover, can you help me?
I’m a child lost in the woods
A black heart pollutes me
And I think
A Asus2 C
You’re a mountain
A Asus2 C F
that I’d like to climb
A Asus2 C
Not to conquer
A Asus2 C F G
but to share in the view
(repeat pattern)
Pulled by a false inertia
Pushed out by circumstance
Pistol firing at my feet
That’s coercing me to dance
Yet I look for a bigger bang
Than the kind I’m sorry to know.
Here I am, first foot of the climb
Watch me go.
Lover, can you help me?
I’m a child lost in the woods
A lit path eludes me
And I think
You’re a mountain that I’d like to climb
Not to conquer, but to share in the view
You’re a bonfire and I’m gathered ’round you
Set this old black heart inertia aflame
Send it away (repeat)
You’re a mountain
That I’d like to climb
Not to conquer, but to share in the view
You’re a bonfire
And I’m gathered ’round you
Set this old black heart inertia aflame
