The Pit

	  		                     D 
I would rather stay here 
                                Bm 
where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines 
it shines on you 
      G   A         D 
It lights up your eyes 


Bm A G (x2) 


Bm               A              G 
Sitting here all by ourselves, counting all the people  
        Bm       A              G 
As they pass us by  
        Bm              A 
They gather all around, stare on down 
        G     D    Em 
Into a dark, dark, pit  
      Bm A             G 
Don't go, please don't go 
          Bm               A 
But they step on in, they fall all in 
       G 
They walk all over you 
 Bm                       A                    G      D      Em 
One step at a time they walk in a line down a false, false, hope 



                     D 
I would rather stay here 
                                Bm 
where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines  
it shines on you 
     G    A        D 
it lights up your eyes 
                     D 
I would rather stay here 
where the moon, it glows 
Bm 
soaring doves and falling crows 
   G             A          D 
laughter is the only sound here 
D             Em                 G                        D 
If i had one wish, I'd fill up that pit, I'd fill up that pit  
                               Em 
I'd cry till it filled to the brim 
                   G                      D 
You'd swim to the top, and I'd grab your hand 

  

   Bm                        A 
Oh how can I, how can I convince you to stay 
                  G 
where all the flowers bloom and the grass it sways 
         Bm                      A 
And the rain, it pours, and the waves all roar 
         G 
and the trees they grow, and the falling crow 
       Bm             A 
soars down into that dark cold pit  
          G                               
and you follow it in, oh you follow it in 

  
                     D 
I would rather stay here 
                                Bm 
where the flowers bloom and the sun, it shines  
it shines on you 
     G    A        D 
it lights up your eyes 
                     D 
I would rather stay here 
where the moon, it glows 
Bm 
soaring doves and falling crows 
   G             A          D 
laughter is the only sound here 
D             Em                 G                        D 
If i had one wish, I'd fill up that pit, I'd fill up that pit  
                               Em 
I'd cry till it filled to the brim 
                   G                      D 
You'd swim to the top, and I'd grab your hand
