The Hill

Verse 1

Am    C      F       Am       
Walking up the hill tonight 
and you have closed your eyes
I wish I didn't have to make
all those mistakes and be wise
Please try to be patient 
and know that I'm still learning
I'm sorry that you have to see 
the strength inside me burning

Chorus

Am                         G      
Where are you my angel now
F                          C   Em 
don't you see me crying?
Am                                   G
And I know that you can't do it all 
F                                     C   Em
but you can't say I'm not trying
Am                         G
I'm on my knees in front of him 
F                                  C  Em
but he doesn't seem to see me
Am                         G
But all his troubles on his mind
F                           C   Em
he's looking right through me
Am                             G
And I'm letting myself down
F                          C  Em 
beside this fire in you
Am                                   G
And I wish that you could see 
F                             C  Em
that half my troubles too

Verse 2

Am    C      F       Am      
Looking at you sleeping 
I'm with the man I love
I'm sitting here weeping 
while the hours pass so slow
And I know that in the morning 
I'll have to let you go
And you'll be just a man 
once I used to know
And for these past few days 
someone I don't recognise
This isn't all my fault 
when will you realise

Chorus

Am                         G      
Where are you my angel now
F                          C   Em 
don't you see me crying?
Am                                   G
And I know that you can't do it all 
F                                     C   Em
but you can't say I'm not trying
Am                         G
I'm on my knees in front of him 
F                                  C  Em
but he doesn't seem to see me
Am                         G
But all his troubles on his mind
F                           C   Em
he's looking right through me
Am                             G
And I'm letting myself down
F                          C  Em 
beside this fire in you
Am                                   G
And I wish that you could see 
F                             C  Em
that half my troubles too


Am    C    F    Am
Looking at you leaving, I'm looking for a sign
