Oh My Dear by Tenth Avenue North

    F                       Bb
I called you up, you were in bed
               F                        Bb
Could barely make out the words that you said
         F                   Am
But you wanted to see me instead
           Bb
So I got dressed
        F                   Bb
And I stepped out into the snow
     F                  Bb
And walked for a mile or so
          F                         Am             Bb
Felt the rush of blood come from the cold, in my chest


          F                    Bb
Well you finally came to the door
        F                     Bb
And we talked for an hour or more
          F                           Am
Until I asked if you would stay up till four
               Bb
You said that's fine
         F                                Bb   
But you said there's something I have to say
       F                           Bb
And I can't because I'm just so afraid
          F                          Am          Bb 
And so I held you as you started to shake, that night


Dm     F
Oh my dear
Bb           Bb2
I will wait for you
Dm       F          Bb       Bb2
Grace tonight, will pull us through

           F                    Bb
Until the tears have left your eyes
           F                  Bb
Until the fear can sleep at night
            F                   Bb         Dm 
Until the demons that you're scared of, disappear inside
             F               Bb
Until this guilt begins to crack
          F                     Bb
And the weight falls from your back
Dm
Oh my dear
Bb2                          F
I'll keep you in my arms tonight

            F                         Bb
You slowly lifted your head from your hands
            F                               Bb
You said "I just don't think that youll understand
             F                    Am                        Bb
Youll never look at me that way again, if you knew what I did"
             F                       Bb
And so your tears fell and melted the snow
              F                  Bb
You told me secrets nobody had known
           F                          Am                       Bb
Oh, but I never loved you more even though now I knew what you did
