In Memoriam

Bm           D                   
well, it's a long way out to 
      Bm
reach the sea
             D                     
but I'm sure I'll find you waiting 
          Bm
there for me
            D                     
and by the time I blink, I'll see 
A
your wild arms swinging
         Bm                        
just to meet me in the middle of 
  G
the road
           Bm                      
and you'll hold me like you'll 
          G
never let me go
        Bm                         
and beside the salty water, I could
  A
 hold you close,
            D                    
but you are far too beautiful to 
Bm
love me

[Verse 2]
       D                      
it's a long climb up the dusty 
  Bm
mountain
Continúa después del anuncio
           D                    
to build a turret tall enough to 
Bm
keep you out
             D                     
but when you wage your wars against
      A
 the one who adores you,
            Bm                     
then you'll never know the treasure
      G
 that you're worth
         Bm                      
but I've never been a wealthy one 
  G
before
         Bm                      A
I've got holes in my pockets burned 
by liars' gold,
                D                  
and I think I'm far too poor for 
     Bm
you to want me

[Verse 3]
            D                    
it's been a long road, losing all 
     Bm
I've owned
              D                    
and you don't know what you've got 
          Bm
until you're gone
            D                     
and it's a nasty habit, spending all
A
 you have, but
            Bm                     
when you're doing all the leaving, 
           G
then it's never your love lost
            Bm                     
and if you leave before the start, 
              G
then there was never love at all
            Bm                     
and heaven knows I'm prone to leave
           G
 the only God I should have loved,
               D                   
and yet you're far too beautiful to
  Bm
 leave me
