Paperweights

D             D6      D       F#m
I’ll show you I’m not made of stone
D         D6          D            F#m
How can I freeze when there’s this floor below
G             A               Bm              G
I’m afraid to flood until you tell me you can swim


[Chorus]
          D
But these words
         A
Will not wait
      Bm              G
Under paperweights anymore
                      D
You say, “I paint the truth”
                      A
So watch these colors run
                 Bm                 G
They’ll lead you back to where it began


[Verse]
D           D6      D       F#m
You tell me you can take it all
D          D6       D             F#m
None of my warnings make you feel less tall
        G             A               Bm               G
Oh, you tell me it is time to let the letters find the page


[Chorus]
          D
But these words
         A
Will not wait
      Bm              G
Under paperweights anymore
                      D
You say, “I paint the truth”
                      A
So watch these colors run
                 Bm                 G
They’ll lead you back to where it began



[Verse 2]
                G
Can you hear it coming
                 A
The thunder of a beat
               Bm
The tales of a lifetime
                       D
The way the mountain’s climbed
         G
I am not afraid
                   A
Of what it all may look like
                     Bm
On the other side of truth
          D
No longer bulletproof


                G
Can you hear it coming
                 A
The thunder of a beat
               Bm
The tales of a lifetime
                       D
The way the mountain’s climbed
         G
I am not afraid
                   A
Of what it all may look like
                     Bm
On the other side of truth
          D
No longer bulletproof
