A                     Dsus2
I spent a year in the mouth of a whale
       Em11        Dsus2   A
With a flame and a book of signs.
                      Dsus2
You'll never know how hard I've failed
          Em11    Dsus2    A
Trying to make up for lost time.




A                  Dsus2
Once I believed in things unseen
      Em11           A
I was blinded by the dark
                Dsus2
Out of the multitude to me,
   Em11     Dsus2    A
He came and broke my heart




         Em11        Dsus2     A
When the dust in the field has flown,
        Em11        Dsus2      A
And the youngest of hearts has grown,
        Em11           Dsus2    
And you doubt you will ever be free,
Riff1             Riff1
Don't bail on me




A                 Dsus2
River is wide and oh so deep,
       Em11      Dsus2  A
And it winds and winds around
                    Dsus2
I dream we're happy in my sleep,
         Em11     Dsus2    A
Floating down and down and down




        Em11        Dsus2       A
And the tide rushes by where we stand,
         Em11      Dsus2          A
And the earth underneath turns to sand,
          Em11        Dsus2     
And we're waiting for someone to see,
Riff1               Riff1
Don't bail on me




A         Dsus2
Tell ma I loved the man
     Em11     Dsus2      A
Even though I turned and ran
                  Dsus2
Lovely and fine I could have been
Em11               Dsus2       A
Laying down in the palm of his hand
Em11               Dsus2       A
Laying down in the palm of his hand
Em11               Dsus2       A
Laying down in the palm of his hand
Em11                Dsus2       A
Staying down in the palm of his hand




       Em11        Dsus2        A
In the morning you wait for the sun,
    Dsus2    Em11          A
And secretly hope it won't come,
    Dsus2       Em11     Dsus2
But time washes everyone clean,
              Riff1
Honey now, don't bail on me
Riff1             Riff1
Don't bail on me
Riff1             Riff1
Don't bail on me
