[Verse 1, 0:38]

 Dm   F9/C   Gm9
 He's just the kind of man, you hear about
 Bb   Csus9   Dm      Am11
 Who leaves his family    for, an easy out
 Dm    F9/C      Gm/A
 They never saw the signs... he never said a word
 Bb     C9                 A7
 He couldn't take another day


[Bridge, 1:03]

 Dm    Bbmaj7     C        A7
 Carry me to the shoreline
 Dm       Bbmaj7     C        A7
 Bury me in the sand
 Dm       Bbmaj7     C        A7
 Walk me across the water
     Bb                Csus     C
 And maybe you'll understand


[Chorus, 1:28]

  F/A          Bb       Csus
 Once the stone you're crawling under
 F/A         Bb       Csus      Dm
 Is lifted off your shoulders
 F/A          Bb           Csus
 Once the cloud that's raining
 A7type2       Dm         Dm/C
 Over your head disappears
       G/B
 The noise that you'll hear
           Bb              Csus
 Is the crashing down of hollow years


[Interlude, 1:57]


[Verse 2, 2:09]

 Dm  F9/C  Gm9
 She's not the kind of girl, you hear about
 Bb   Csus9   Dm                Am11
 She'll never want another, she'll never be without
 Dm    F9/C      Gm/A
 She'll give you all the signs... she'll tell you everything
 Bb     C9                 A7
 Then turn around and walk away


[Bridge, 2:34]

 Carry me to the shoreline
 Bury me in the sand
 Walk me across the water
 And maybe you’ll understand


[Chorus, 2:59]

 Once the stone
 You’re crawling under (once the stone)
 Is lifted off your shoulders
 Once the cloud that's raining
 Over your head disappears
 The noise that you'll hear
 Is the crashing down of hollow years


[Solo, 3:28]


[Bridge, 3:52]


[Chorus, 4:20, 1/2 Step up]
