verse
G
I should have seen you were coming, I should have been prepared.
Cadd9 D
After all, getting half of what you wish for isn't so rare.
G
But still I wasn't ready, you took my by surprise,
Cadd9 D G
you brought a light to my dark like a word from the wise
chorus
Bm C Am D
Weather wears the mountains right down into the sea,
B7 Em D C
so I will stand in the rain until I am clean
(play this on the second time through on the second chorus)
Bm C Am D
Rivers carve the country, a landscape shaped by a stream,
B7 Em D C
so I will swim in the river as long as you need.
G
We fell in love in the summer, when the skies were clear,
Cadd9 D G
but I'm still wearing my coat from winter last year
G
I need to set my house in order, confess and cover my sins.
Cadd9 D G
I need to make a home for you before inviting you in
back to chorus x2
Em C D
G/Gb
Darling oh my darling you know that everything that I do
Em C G
is to try and make me good enough for you
Em C D
G/B
Darling oh my darling you know that everywhere that I go,
Em C G
I'm just trying to find the fastest way back home.
("back home.....")
