G (320003@1)                  C/G (3x555x@1)    G (320003@1) 
Been so many days of longing now
Em (022000@1)                       BWhy (x2444x@1)should it ever be this far
                     AmWhere (x02210@1)I get frightened
          C/G*         B (x2444x@1)                                 C/G* BI (x2444x@1)could never gather birds enough to carry 'round your heart

G (320003@1)                      C/G (3x555x@1)         G (320003@1) 
But I see traces of your thoughts out here
      Em (022000@1)                BI (x2444x@1)see a sight; I hear a sound
      Am (x02210@1)            C/G*               B (x2444x@1)                          C/G* B (x2444x@1)I only comfort in the brittleness of days when I can hold what I just found

C/G*    G (320003@1)          B*    Em (022000@1)    
In the untired eyes of the laughing child
  C/G (3x555x@1)             G (320003@1)       B*
And the dirtiest sweater he owns
C/G*                  GEarly, (320003@1)sun-warmed pine
B*                       EmAnd (022000@1)all those life-like sins
C/G (3x555x@1)                   G (320003@1)           B*
That will pull out the memories to show
B (x2444x@1)                        
I'm not leavin' alone
C/G*         B (x2444x@1)       G(intro) (320003@1)I'm not leavin' alone

If just that weather-beatin' plane was here
Haven't seen it since I came
Can only wonder if it's near or in the skies
When this damn city sounds the same

And sometimes I'm just a tangle in this trampled wheat
Shirk a-like a losing dog
If just tonight that I could be where you are near
And just forget where I am lost

In the untired eyes of the laughing child
And the dirtiest sweater he owns
Early, sun-warmed pine
And all those life-like sins
That will pull out the memories to show
I'm not leavin' alone
I'm not leavin' alone
