Intro:

G   D/F#   Em    Em
Steady and timeless,
  Em     D/F#    G    G
a harder wave to ride
      G   D/F#  Em     Em
Seems crazy and reckless
   Em    D/F#    C    C
to see the other side

G  D/F#   Em   Em
Roses and ashes with
Em    D/F#     G    G
roses still to spare
Continues after the ad
    G     D/F#     Em     Em
How wrong to never question,
   Em      D/F#        C    C
To kneel too late, too bare

       C               C
Having seen that spark
     Em                Em
From within your heart
      C                         D
I can only think how proud he'd be

  G     D/F#     Em       Em
I pulled shut my car door
     Em  D/F#  G   G
Kept winter at bay
    G     D/F#      Em          Em
You poured out your heart break
    Em  D/F#  C   C
The only real way

         C             C
What you gave was sewn
       Em               Em
In the earth we'd grown
          C                 D
Where the new loves roam so free

      C              C
And tomorrow's pain,
        Em          Em
Changes paths again,
         C              D
needing all the love it finds
