  Em            D        G        
You couldn't stand under the weight I put on you 
       Am      C          Em  
I understand, now it is true 
       Em            D          G 
I can see that there was nothing you could do 
        Am    C     Em 
with a sorrow so loud 

      Em           D            G 
If I could I'd open up and let you in 
       Am       C         Em 
but the door has no handles and 
      Em            D         G 
it would seem that I by now have worn you thin 
      Am   C   Em 
My heart is so hard 

C Em E7 Am G D Em         Am         Em 
Oooooooooooooooh, the sorrow's too loud 
C Em E7 Am G D Em          Am        Em 
Oooooooooooooooh, and my heart is too hard 

  Em               D               G 
I only wish that you would return home to be 
    Am             C             Em 
And I could bathe in your familiarity 
   Em              D              G 
But I realise this is a hopeless dream 
    Am      C         Em 
We have traveled too far 

   Em              D                G 
I also wish that I might never read again 
   Am              C             Em  
the same narrative under a different pen 
    Em            D            G 
But I fear this is a circle I am in 
   Am            C   Em 
for my heart is so hard 

C Em E7 Am G D Em              Am         Em 
Oooooooooooooooooh,We have traveled too far 
C Em E7 Am G D Em         Am        Em  
Oooooooooooooooooh,And this heart is so hard 

       Am         Em 
The sorrow's too loud 
       Am         Em 
We have traveled too far 
       Am         C    Em 
And this heart is so hard
