D Bm x2 
(Start on last Bm) 
Bm           D                         Bm 
well, it's a long way out to reach the sea  
             D                               Bm 
but I'm sure I'll find you waiting there for me  
            D                     A 
and by the time I blink, I'll see your wild arms swinging  
         Bm                          G 
just to meet me in the middle of the road  
           E                                G 
and you'll hold me like you'll never let me go  
        E                           G 
and beside the salty water, I could hold you close,  
            D                    Bm 
but you are far too beautiful to love me  

D Bm 

       D                        Bm 
it's a long climb up the dusty mountain  
           D                    Bm  
to build a turret tall enough to keep you out  
             D                           A 
but when you wage your wars against the one who adores you,  
            Bm                           G 
then you'll never know the treasure that you're worth  
         E                        G 
but I've never been a wealthy one before  
         E                      G 
I've got holes in my pockets burned by liars' gold,  
                D                       Bm 
and I think I'm far too poor for you to want me

            D                         Bm 
it's been a long road, losing all I've owned  
              D                              Bm 
and you don't know what you've got until you're gone  
            D                     A 
and it's a nasty habit, spending all you have, but  
            Bm                                G 
when you're doing all the leaving, then it's never your love lost  
            Bm                                   G 
and if you leave before the start, then there was never love at all 
            Bm                                G 
and heaven knows I'm prone to leave the only God I should have loved, 
               D                     Bm 
and yet you're far too beautiful to leave me
