Tom: G
[Intro] G C
G
The sparrows tend to fall asleep
C
The wind doesn't speak to me no more
G
The water that becomes the sea
C
It holds me until I can't breathe at all
G
I dream of things I've never seen
C
The sunlight doesn't wait for me now
G
My demons, they walk with me
C
They tell me that I let you down
G
You were just a heartbeat, yet to come alive
Just two feet, yet to stand upright
C
Was just three times we cried that night
Am
'Cause it was four months until you arrived
G
And though I'll never be able to describe
How you were born with your mother's eyes
C
And how your hands felt when they met mine
Am
And how Luke thinks we look alike
G
If I'm wed, I'd tell her she's beautiful
C
And that I think she should smile more
You'd never know, but she misses you
Am
More than anyone she's known
G
And though I'll never
Get to recognize your voice
C
On the other line when you've grown
Am
And made me proud to call you mine
G C
I still know you, I still know you
G
You were just a heartbeat, yet to come alive
Just two feet, yet to stand upright
C
Was just three times we cried that night
Am
'Cause it was four months until you arrived
G
And though I'll never be able to describe
How you were born with your mother's eyes
C
And how your hands felt when they met mine
Am
And how Luke thinks we look alike
G
I'll keep you safe inside my mind
As I try to say goodbye
C
There was more than one heart
That stopped that night
Am
If I'm honest
G
I'll keep you safe inside my mind
As I try to say goodbye
C
There was more than one heart
That stopped that night
If I'm honest
G
You were just a heartbeat, yet to come alive
Just two feet, yet to stand upright
C
Was just three times we cried that night
Am
'Cause it was four months until you arrived
G
And though I'll never be able to describe
How you were born with your mother's eyes
C
And how your hands felt when they met mine
Am
And how Luke thinks we look alike
G
I'll keep you safe inside my mind
As I try to say goodbye
C
There was more than one heart
That stopped that night
Am G
I'm so sorry
