The Earth Falls Asleep by Jeremy Spring / Abandon Kansas

Intro:
 
Can  
E (022100@1)anyone tell me  
Emaj9 
how, how we  
A2 (x02420@1)learn to live with  
E (022100@1)ourselves?
 
I've been for
C#m 
given of things only  
Ab (xx1114@1)God knows, but I  
A (x02220@1)can't forgive my
Am (x02210@1)self
 
After  
E (022100@1)all of my searching  
E/C 
I found who I  
C#m 
am, and it's not what I  
E (022100@1)wanted
 
But I'm  
C#m 
here now, and I'm  
F#maj 
broken, come  
A2 (x02420@1)save me from this  
E (022100@1)hell

guitar interlude:      E (022100@1)    E/C      C#m (x13321@4)    D (xx0232@1)Verse 1:
 
A2 (x02420@1)The earth falls  
B (x2444x@1)asleep much too early for  
Abm 
me
 
I close my  
C#m 
eyes but  
B (x2444x@1)I can't  
A2 (x02420@1)rest
 
My body is  
B (x2444x@1)tired, my mind is  
Abm 
running
 
From the  
C#m 
past to the  
B (x2444x@1)east to the  
F#m 
west
 
Trying to  
Abm 
find the blame that you've  
A2 (x02420@1)already taken from  
A2 (x02420@1)me

Chorus:
 
Can  
E (022100@1)anyone tell me  
Emaj9 
how, how we  
A2 (x02420@1)learn to live with  
E (022100@1)ourselves?

guitar interlude:   E (022100@1)     E/C       C#m (x13321@4)     D (xx0232@1)Verse 2:
 
A2 (x02420@1)I'm convinced that the  
B (x2444x@1)world that we see is a  
Abm 
curtain
C#m 
Behind which  
B (x2444x@1)vast realms  
A2 (x02420@1)await 
 
us
 
Of uncharted  
B (x2444x@1)marvels and oceans of  
Abm 
mercy inside my  
C#m 
Father's 
 
 
B (x2444x@1)eyes
A2 (x02420@1)And the mountains are  
B (x2444x@1)grandstands, that  
Abm 
sheets of blue sky rest  
C#m 
up
B (x2444x@1)on
F#m 
Peeled back with  
Abm 
ease by your hands to  
A2 (x02420@1)reveal a glory I've  
A2 (x02420@1)never 
 
seen

Chorus:
 
Can  
E (022100@1)anyone tell me  
Emaj9 
how, how we  
A2 (x02420@1)learn to live with  
E (022100@1)ourselves?
 
I've been for
C#m 
given of things only  
Ab (xx1114@1)God knows, but I  
A (x02220@1)can't forgive my
Am (x02210@1)self

C#m 
am, and it's not what I  
E (022100@1)wanted
 
But I'm  
C#m 
here now, and I'm  
F#maj 
broken

Bridge:
 
I want to  
E (022100@1)pay for the things I've  
E/C 
done, and the people I've  
C#m 
hurt, get what I  
D (xx0232@1)deserve
 
But you won't  
A (x02220@1)let me,  
B (x2444x@1)no, you won't  
E (022100@1)let 
 
me

Outro:
 
My  
E (022100@1)hope is in the unseen  
C (x32010@1) 
My  
E (022100@1)hope is in the unseen  
C (x32010@1) 
My  
E (022100@1)hope is in the  
Emaj9 
unseen, cause I  
A2 (x02420@1)see no hope in  
E (022100@1)me
