Introdução:
D Em Bm A D
Helpless, she lies across the stairs
D Em Bm A D
Haunting your days, consuming your prayers
D Em Bm A D
There will be healing, but don't force this girl to stand
D Em Bm A D
As she's counting the ceilings, with pale voice and trembling hands
Em A7 D G
You told me life was long, but now that it's gone,
D Em Bm G
You find yourself on top, as the leader of a flock
A7 D D7 G Gm D Em A7 D
Called to be around for those below
D Em Bm A D
Whispered notes from the piano in the corner of the room
D Em Bm A D
Hold your throat, is that healing that you're hearing in her tune?
D Em Bm A D
Wanting change, but loving her just as she lies
D Em Bm A D
Is the burden of the man who's built his life on love
Em A7 D G
You told me life was long, but now that it's gone,
D Em Bm G
You find yourself on top, as the leader of a flock
A7 D D7 G Gm D Em A7 D
Called to be around for those below
Em A
I'll be locked up and stored
Em A
In a lavender ward
Em A
'Cause my mind is just like hers,
Em A
just as broken, just as crippled, just as burned
D Em Bm G
And then I find myself on top, as the leader of a flock
A7 D D7 G Gm D Em A7 D
Called to be around for those below
