Hamilton - Its Quiet Uptown

 F                                             C 
      There are moments that the words don't reach
                                    Dm 
There is suffering too terrible to name
                                      Bb 
You hold your child as tight as you can
                           F 
And push away the unimaginable
                               C 
The moments when you're in so deep
                              Dm 
It feels easier to just swim down

                      Bb 
The Hamiltons move uptown
                                    F 
And learn to live with the unimaginable

                                 C 
I spend hours in the garden
                     Dm 
I walk alone to the store
                         Bb 
And it's quiet uptown
                            F 
I never liked the quiet before
                                  C 
I take the children to church on Sunday
                            Dm 
A sign of the cross at the door
               Bb 
And I pray
                              F 
That never used to happen before

 C 
Walking by himself, talking to himself
      Dm 
Have pity

                                          Bb 
Phillip, you would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown

                                   F 
He is working through the unimaginable

    C 
He passes every day
                                     Dm 
They say he walks the length of the city

                           Bb 
You knock me out, I fall apart

                     F 
Can you imagine?

 C 
Look at where we started
 Dm 
I know I don't deserve you, Eliza
 Bb 
But hear me out, that would be enough
 F 
If I could spare his life
 C                              Dm 
If I could trade his life for mine
                             Bb 
He'd be standing here right now
And you would smile
                           C 
And that would be enough
                    Dm                          Am 
I don't pretend to know the challenges we're facing
                       Bb 
I know there's no replacing what we've lost
              F 
And you need time
                        C 
But I'm not afraid
I know who I married
 Dm                             Bb 
Just let me stay here by your side
                         F 
That would be enough

 C 
Walking by her side
Talking by her side
      Dm 
Have pity

       Bb 
It's quiet uptown

                                F 
He is trying to do the unimaginable
                               C 
See them walking in the park, long after dark
                             Dm 
Taking in the sights of the city

                             Bb 
Look around, look around, Eliza

                                   F 
They are trying to do the unimaginable

                                         C 
There are moments that the words don't reach
                                  Dm 
There is a grace too powerful to name
                                     Bb 
We push away what we can never understand
                          F 
We push away the unimaginable
                                    C 
They are standing in the garden
                       Dm 
Alexander by Eliza's side
                  Bb 
She takes his hand

              F 
It's quiet uptown

                 C 
Forgiveness
Can you imagine?
 Dm               Bb 
Forgiveness
Can you imagine?
 F 
If you see him in the street
 C 
Walking by her side
Talking by her side
      Dm 
Have pity
 Bb                                  F 
They are going through the unimaginable
