Weight Of A Man

             D       G
This could be heavy,
          D       A
not as easy,as it seems.
               D       G
Quite tough to carry,
               D                 A
a lot more inside,that no-one has seen.

    Bm       A
But you lying there,
       D           G
you're not one bit scared,
   D
to shoulder,
             A
a burden like me.

   D                G
So don't close your eyes,

turn your face to the skies,
    D                        A    Asus
and breath me as deep as you can.

                D      G    D   A
the weight of a man.

               D         G
I'm so hard to handle,
            D                          A
my life's a suitcase that's never been closed.
                   D           G
Don't know how you stand me,
           D
or how you love me,
         A
god only knows.

        Bm                A
There's ghosts and there's witches,
        D              G
there's black eyes and stitches.
          D
They come with me,
                 A     Asus
it's part of the show.

suspended on air,

because you're lying there.
             D                        A     Asus
you shift me slightly and find inspiration.
G                       D
Cause those witches and ghosts,
          Bm               G
play some havoc with their host,

you make me lighter,
