The only version of this song I know is the one from McLachlan's Live Version EP, so it may differ ever, ever so slightly in lyrics. Just a disclaimer! Am Heaven bent to take my hand F C and lead me through the fire - G Am be the long-awaited answer F C G to a long and painful fight. Am Truth be told, I tried my best, F C but somewhere along the way Am C F I got caught up in all there was to offer, Am C F and the price was so much more than I could bear. C Though I've tried, I've fallen. I have G Dm F sunk so low. I messed up - C G better, I should know. Dm F So don't come 'round here C G Dm and tell me, "I told you so." [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/sarah-mclachlan/319002.html ] Am We all begin with good intent: F C love was raw and young. G Am We believed that we could change ourselves, F C the past could be undone. G Am But we carry on our backs the burden F C time always reveals G Am in the lonely light of morning, Dm F in the wound that would not heal. Dm F C It's the bitter taste of losing everything G Dm that I've held so dear. C I've fallen. I have G Dm F sunk so low. I messed up - C G better, I should know. Dm F So don't come 'round here C G Dm and tell me, "I told you so." Am Heaven, bend to take my hand: F C nowhere left to turn. G Am I'm lost to those I thought were friends, F C to everyone I know. G Am Oh, they turn their heads, embarassed, F C pretend that they don't see. Am But it's one missed step, C F one slip before you know it. Am C F And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed. C Though I've tried, I've fallen. I have G Dm F sunk so low. I messed up - C G better, I should know. Dm F So don't come 'round here C G Dm and tell me, "I told you so." |
