Conor continues to play this through the verse, but for easy reading I will just
have the lyrics and chords. He finger picks most of the song except in the chorus
when he hits the E he strums.

                  A                                Bm
Last Saturday I stood in your entry way
                                     F#m
That place where we used to wait
                    E
For cars to carry us away
                              A                                            Bm
Like once in this storm, they drove me and Justin home
                                  F#m
The music was just being born
                E
It was all I was longing for

                        A
Now I’m on a plane
                           Bm                                                         F#m
Off singing my songs again, oh please don’t think ill of it
                         E
Cause it’s the reason I exists
                                   A
But you, you’re the crutch of a cripple, You're the calm of a conscience
                   Bm
You're the peace that I have found
                          F#m                                           E
When all these voices talk too loud you are quietly reassuring me
                A
With the hands of a healer and the tongue of a teacher
               Bm
It’s your voice that I have known
                 F#m                                                            E
To be the first one on the phone. Yeah, you ran all the lights to the hospital

A G#
                       C#m              F#
So don't you say to me
That life's a trap
                                                B
The future is nothing but a tragedy
                                           E
'Cause I'll be out of that window
                                            F#m
Yeah, I'll start wishing to die again
                                               C#m
Just say we're not walking backwards, kid
        B
And show me to the door
                           E
And I'll walk behind
                      F#m
Out into the hot sunlight
                                         C#m
Where the world's very much alive
         G#                         A     E
Even when I close my eyes

Intro 1x

                             A
Well, should I admit
                                   Bm
That my promise is counterfeit
                                     F#m
That I'm careless and childish
                        E
And that's all I can hope to be
                                  A
And would you concede
                              Bm
That I think only of myself
                       F#m
I refuse everybody's help
                         E
Who has been reaching out for me
                                           A
Well, you reach with the soul of a sailor and the swing of a miner
                 Bm
You have cleared the rock away
              F#m
Leaving gold there in its place
                E
And it is more than anyone could claim
                       A
Oh, with the sense of a banker and with the touch of a tailor
       Bm
You saved this life for me
                        F#m
And you have sown it to beauty
                 E
And I am grateful now and I will always be

A G#
                         C#m                 F#
So would you sing with me
The song is all I know
                                                              B
Some truths are told now only in a melody
                                       E
So I've been writing a new one
                                              F#m
Yeah, I've been taking my time with it
                        C#m
It's gonna be so perfect
                           B
It's gonna hold all of us inside of it
               E
You will see
                                   F#m
If you just add your harmony
                           C#m
I think it would be complete
             G#                    A    E
And be worthy of singing
     G#                       A   E
Becomes a symphony

                              A
Yeah, you're the cool of the water, you're the start of the summer
                Bm
Keep me still like an anchor. In a storm you're the cellar
                 F#m
When I'm heavy with worry make me light as a feather
                 E
When I'm deafened by anger you're the song I remember
                A
With the grace of a dancer and the strength of a pillar
                 Bm
When I'm starving to suffer you just fill me with laughter
               F#m
You're a poet and a saint
                     E
You are the only one I choose to imitate
                     A
Oh, like the love of a father through the eye of a camera
             Bm
It's this picture I have seen
                   F#m
We're on a sloping hill of green
                      E                                    (intro 1x then end on A )
And you are walking there beside me
