Intro F#m/A A F#m/A A
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
The street bears no relief
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
When everybody's fighting
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
The street bears no relief
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
With light so hot and binding.
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
I run the stairs away
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
And walk into the night-time.
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
The sadness flows like water
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
And washes down the heartache.
Em Dsus2 D Dsus2 D
My heart is full, My heart is wide,
Bm A F#m/A
The saddest songs are played on the strings of my hear
F#m/A A
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
The heat is on its own,
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
The roof seems so inviting.
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
A vantage point is gained
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
To watch the children fighting.
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
So lead me to the harbour
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
And float me on the waves,
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
Sink me in the ocean
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
To sleep in a sailor's grave,
F#m/A D/A F#m/A
To sleep in a sailor's grave.
Em Dsus2 D Dsus2 D

The saddest songs are played on the strings of my hear
Em Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D
My heart is full, My heart is wide,
