Bb      Eb        Bb      Eb


[Verse 1]

Bb
I'm at your back door
                             Eb
With the earth of a hundred nations in my skin
              Gm
You wouldn't recognize me
         F
For the light in my eyes is strange

        Bb
It was years ago, God knows
                      Eb
When you strained to tell me your whole truth
          Gm
That you were not mine to save
                F
That you could not change


[Chorus]

              Eb      Bb
Would it be enough to go by
             F                        Gm
If we could sail on the wind and the dark?
Eb                       Bb
Cut those chains in the middle of the night
     Gm               F
That had you pulled apart

              Eb      Bb
Would it be enough to go by
            F                     Gm
If there's moonlight pulling the tide?
              Eb       Bb
Would it be enough to live on
       F                    Bb
If my love could keep you alive?


[Verse 2]

      Bb
I've built a lot of castles
                              Eb
I've built a lot of blazing speed-of-light machines
                Gm
But it doesn't matter, you know
           F
They all crumble in the winds of change

      Bb
So I turned back to breathing
                      Eb
I learned a few good reasons to cry
       Gm
And I finally called home
        Eb                     F
Praying    you weren't out of range


[Bridge]

 Eb
Carry the weight
                          F
I'll carry the weight of you, I swear
 Eb
Carry the weight
                          F
I'll carry the weight of you


[Chorus]

              Eb      Bb
Would it be enough to go by
             F                        Gm
If we could sail on the wind and the dark?
 Eb                      Bb
Cut those chains in the middle of the night
     Gm               F
That had you pulled apart

              Eb      Bb
Would it be enough to go by
            F                     Gm
If there's moonlight pulling the tide?
              Eb       Bb
Would it be enough to live on
       F                    Bb
If my love could keep you alive?


[Verse 3]

             Bb
So will you let me come in

Mosquitoes have found me
              Eb
And they're crowding 'round my blood
          Gm
At least offer me a drink
       F
Or a breaking of the ice
     Bb
I'm wanting your anger
                              Eb
I only want to see if I can shake you out of sleep
              Gm
And bring you out under this flooded sky
         F
At any price


[Bridge]

    Eb
So carry the weight
                    F
Carry the weight of me in your heart
 Eb
Carry the weight
                    F
Carry the weight of me


[Chorus]

              Eb      Bb
Would it be enough to go by
             F                        Gm
If we could sail on the wind and the dark?
Eb                       Bb
Cut those chains in the middle of the night
     Gm               F
That had you pulled apart

              Eb      Bb
Would it be enough to go by
            F                     Gm
If there's moonlight pulling the tide?
              Eb       Bb
Would it be enough to live on
       F                    Bb
If my love could keep you alive?
