Intro
N.C.
If the wind turns, if I hit a squall
N.C.
Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me
[C]
Verse 1
[C] [G] [F] [C]
I feel lighter than I have in so much time
[G]
I've crossed the borderline of weightless
[F] [C]
One deep breath out from the sky
[G] [F] [C]
I've reached a rarer height now that I can confirm
[G] [F] [C]
All our weight is just a burden offered to us by the world
Chorus
[Em] [E7]
And though I burn, how could I fall?
[Am] [G] [F]
When I am lifted by every word you say to me
[Dm] [C] [G]
If anything could fall at all, it's the world
N.C. [C]
That falls away from me
Verse 2
[C] [G] [F] [C]
You have me floatin' like a feather on the sea
[G]
While you're as heavy as the world
[F] [C]
That you hold your hands beneath
[G] [F] [C]
Once I had wondered what was holdin' up the ground
[G] [F] [C]
I can see that all along, love, it was you all the way down
Chorus
[Em] [E7]
Leave it now, I am sky-bound
[Am] [G] [F]
If you need to, darling, lean your weight to me
[Dm] [G]
We'll float away, but if we fall
[C]
I only pray, don't fall away from me
Bridge
[Dm] [G]
I do not have wings, love, I never will
[Am] [C] [F]
Soarin' over a world you are carryin'
[Dm] [G]
If these heights should bring my fall
[Am]
Let me be your own
[C] [F]
Icarian carrion
Chorus
[Em] [E7]
If the wind turns, if I hit a squall
[Am] [G] [F]
Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me
[Dm] [Gsus4]
If I should fall, on that day
[G] [C]
I only pray, don't fall away from me
