Chords
D D7 G Gm
D Em A7 D
D Em Bb A7 D
Helpless, she lies across the stairs
D Em Bb A7 D
Haunting your days, consuming your prayers
D Em Bb A7 D
There will be healing, but don't force this girl to stand
D Em Bb A7 D
As she's counting the ceilings, with pale voice and trembling hands
Em A7 D G
You told me life was long, but now that it's gone,
D Em F#m G
You find yourself on top, as the leader of a flock
A7 D D7 G Gm D Em A7 D
Called to be around for those below
D Em Bb A7 D
Whispered notes from the piano in the corner of the room
D Em Bb A7 D
Hold your throat, is that healing that you're hearing in her tune?
D Em Bb A7 D
Wanting change, but loving her just as she lies
D Em Bb A7 D
Is the burden of the man who's built his life on love
Em A7 D G
You told me life was long, but now that it's gone,
D Em F#m G
You find yourself on top, as the leader of a flock
A7 D D7 G Gm D Em A7 D
Called to be around for those below
Em7 A7
I'll be locked up and stored
Em7 A7
In a lavender ward
Em7 A7
'Cause my mind is just like hers,
Em7 A7
just as broken, just as crippled, just as burned
D Em F#m G
And then I find myself on top, as the leader of a flock
A7 D D7 G Gm D Em A7 D
Called to be around for those below
