Mending (2008)
Tuning: 1/2 step down
Chords:
Intro: ---
Love, I won't break your heart;
()
It’s a long way down from here.
Every time you fall and break apart,
()
I will pick you up again.
With your head up high, would you try,
try to place your feet back on the ground.
I’ve found that it’s easier to hide
in the cold alone;
an arrival since the day you fell apart.
Oh but honey I'm alive.
Repeat -------
Love, I won't break your heart,
()
‘cause I’ve seen this all before.
You’re a fire that grows from just a spark,
()
and then walks right out the door.
With your head up high, would you try,
try to place your feet back on the ground.
I’ve found that it’s easier to hide
in the cold alone;
an arrival since the day you fell apart.
Oh but honey I'm alive.
Crying on the phone,
when you said you were alone.
I am gonna stay,
though your friends have gone away.
All the secrets that we have
only keep the worlds alive.
But you've got something left to give,
if you'd only learn to live.
With your head up high, would you try,
cause you’re the only one to pull me through.
Its true,
and it seems a waste of time
to grow old alone.
We’ve been dying since the day we fell apart.
Oh but honey I'm still alive. I’m still alive…
Repeat 2x -------
Ends on C
If you don't want to tune your guitar down, you can use a capo
on the 2nd fret and replace C with A, Am with F#m, G with E,
F with D, and Em with C#m, and that sounds okay too.
