Walk this world
---------------
Em Em+7 Em7 A *
I have slept beside the winter and the green is growing slow
Em Em+7 Em7 A
I have watched you find the places hidden by the snow
C B
I have tripped into a valley that is blue till you can see
Em A Em
I want you to come walk this world with me
Note: (*) Alt: Em Em/D# Em/D A.
G C D Em
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
G C D Em
Holding on and on to what we believe
C B
I'm not touched but I'm aching to be
Em A Em
I want you to come walk this world with me
And I'm sucked in by the wonder and I'm fucked up by the lies
And I dig a hole to lie in and I build some wings to fly
And I think that I could love you 'cause you know how to be free
I want you to come walk this world with me
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
Holding on and on 'til we believe
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
I'm not touched but I'm aching to be
I want you to come, I want you to come
I want you to come walk this world with me
And it's burning in our fingers and it's burning on the road
And I like the way you're broken and I'll like you when you're old
And I see you in the garden and I feel you plant the seed
I want you to come walk this world with me
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
Holding on and on 'til we believe
With the light in our eyes it's hard to see
I'm not touched but I'm aching to be
I want you to come, I want you to come
I want you to come walk this world with me
Heal

Dm A# C Dm
Dm A# C
Fall for me, my southern cross, my star
Dm A# C
Shine for me when love has gone too far
Dm A# C
I've got you belly-deep in me
Dm G A# C
Just a little breath on the water is all we need
Dm G A#
Just a little strenght in our hearts -
C Dm G A#
enough to heal
C Dm G A# C
Enough to heal
Dig me out, can't leave this love for dead
Hand to mouth we're picking up the thread
I've got you belly-deep in me
Just a little breath on the water now is all we need
Just a little strenght in our hearts
enough to heal
Enough to heal
Em A# C
And the sea glistens
Em A# C
And the waves pull us in
Em A# C
There's something rising up and up
Em A# C
Just a little breath on the water now
Just a little strenght in our hearts
enough to heal
Enough to heal
Island

Note: (*) Am picked with the B string left open.
Am C G
There are parts of me he'll never know,
Am C G
my wild horses and my river beds,
Am C G Am C G
and in my throat voices he'll never hear.
Am C G Am C G
He pulls at me like a cherry tree,
Am C G Am C G
and I can still move, but I don't speak about it.
Am C G Am C G
Pretend I'm crazy, pretend I'm dead.
Am C G Am C G
He's to scared to hit me now - he'll bring flowers instead.
