Am G
It feels like falling.
C F C
It feels like rain.
Am C G
Like losing my balance
Em Dm Am
Ag—ain and again.
F Am G
It once was so easy;
C F
Breathe in, breathe out.
Am C G
But at the foot of this mountain,
C F C
I only see clouds.
Am G
I feel out of focus,
C F C
Or at least indisposed
Am C G
As this strange weather pattern
Em Dm Am
Inside me takes hold.
F Am G
Each brave step forward,
C F
I take three steps behind.
A C G
It's mind over matter –
C F C
Matter over mind.
Dm C Am G
Slowly,
Am G C F
then all at once.
Dm C Am G
A single loose thread
Am G C F
And it all comes undone.
Am G
Where there is light,
C F C
A shadow appears.
Am C G
The cause and effect
Em Dm Am
When life interferes.
F Am G
The same rule applies
C F
To goodness and grief;
Am C G
For in our great sorrow
C F C
We learn what joy means.
Dm
I don't want to fight, I don't want to fight it.
G
I don't want to fight, I don't want to fight it.
Am G
I don't want to fight, I don't want to fight it.
F
But I will learn to fight, I will
Dm G
'Til this pendulum finds equilibrium.
Dm--C--G
Dm C Am G
Slowly,
Am G C F
then all at once.
Dm Am G
The dark clouds depart,
Am G C F
And the damage is done.
Dm Am G
So pardon the dust
Am G C F
While this all settles in.
Dm C Am G
With a broo-oken heart,
Am C F
