Chords for a Singer of Songs - Paul (Live video)

[Ab] My eyelids [Bb] are heavier _ than [Eb] they've ever _ been _
I pull [Dm] the [F] darkness _ _ _ up to [Bb] my chin _
This life in _ sawdust
I bent my [Eb] back building _ roofs
Turning [Bb] halls [F] into windows
Then I came back [Bb] home to you _
_ _ _ [Eb] The silence [F] you hear
Is [Bb] the violence [Eb] I feel
_ In this emptiness you [Bbm]
[F] see
I [Bb] am down on my broken [Eb] _
knees
_ [F] Please, _ _ [Eb]
please stay [Bb] close to _ me _
_ Bombs started falling _
When I spoke my [Eb] first words _
My lungs [Bb] [F] started crumbling _
When I was ready [Bb] to be heard _
I signed a truce with fear _
When you picked me [Eb] from the crowd _ _
You let [F] our first dance _
Into this [Bb] tender _ hideout _
_ _ _ [Eb] The silence [F] you hear
Is [Bb] the violence [Eb] I feel
_ In this emptiness [F] you see
I [Bb] am down on my [Eb] broken knees
_ [F] Please, _ _ [Eb]
please stay [Bb] close to me _
Oh, _ _ [F] _ please, _ [Eb] _
please stay [Bb] close to me _ _
