Weakness

C  C  C  C


[Verse 1]
C                           B7
Ran away from silence to the fury
Am                                  B7
Hope I find someone there that could cure me
G
I went to the world
    F                           C
My weakness got stronger every day
C                                B7
Though my chequered history's appalling
Am                         B7
In the line of beauty I lay fallen
G
I found a girl
          F                             C
She's my weakness, gets stronger every day
C
Every day


[Chorus]
          Fmaj7         Dm               C            Am
I can't promise I will love you for the rest of your life
         Fmaj7          Dm               C       G
But you know I'm gonna be there for the rest of mine
    C        G        Am   F
We pour our hearts into a box
 C         G         Am        F
Seal that box with chains and locks
Bb           F
And then we hide it
Continues after the ad
 C                 Gm
Don't dare look inside it
Bb           F        C   Gm
In case the feeling shows
                C         G          Am       F#7
You could spend all your life with that damn box
F                   C
Trying to keep it closed


[Verse 2]
C                          B7
Went around the world in 80 lovers
Am                         B7
Don't think really anyone recovered
G
Go see the world
          F                           C
Let your weakness get stronger every day
C
Every day


[Chorus]
         Fmaj7         Dm
I took photographs of Mars
         C                 G
Left my footprints on the Moon
   Fmaj7         Dm
I wanted the universe
    C           G
Then they sent you
    C        G        Am   F
We pour our hearts into a box
 C         G         Am        F
Seal that box with chains and locks
Bb           F
And then we hide it
 C                 G
Don't dare look inside it
Bb           F        C   G
In case the feeling shows
                C         G          Am       F#7
You could spend all your life with that damn box
F                   C
Trying to keep it closed


[Instrumental]
Fmaj7  Dm  C  G (2x)
C  G  Am  F#7
F  C


[Chorus]
    C        G        Am   F
We pour our hearts into a box
 C         G         Am        F
Seal that box with chains and locks
Bb           F
And then we hide it
 C                 G
Don't dare look inside it
Bb           F        C   G
In case the feeling shows
               C         G          Am       F#7
We could spend all your life with that damn box
F                   C
Trying to keep it closed
