Intro: A A D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 x2 


A      D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 
  As I lay my burden down 
A      D  Dmaj7  D  Dmaj7 
 In the cradle of an elegy 
A       D  Dmaj7  D   Dmaj7    G 
 In the shotgun shape of this life

  I'm happy happy in the sorrow key 


verse 1 
Bm                  G 
 Hadrian's wall was mighty 
A                  
 Not so mighty it didn't fall 
Bm                  G 
I roamed among its sod and stone 
    A 
To wonder how we come apart 
    F#m                Bm  
The earth it holds the human toll 
    Em7                 A 
The heavens bow to the gravity 
    Bm                 G 
The bursting heart the bleeding brain 
   A 
In grief we shift tectonically 

 
A      D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 
  As I lay my burden down 
A      D  Dmaj7  D  Dmaj7 
 In the cradle of an elegy 
A       D  Dmaj7  D   Dmaj7    G 
 In the shotgun shape of this life 
F#                       Bm         G F# Bm G F#  
  I'm happy happy in the sorrow key 


verse 2 
Bm                  G 
Three days moored in Singapore 
A 
The ancient lure of currency 
Bm                  G 
The rain came down the trade winds blew 
A 
And held me anchored to my dues 
F#m                Bm  
Slumbering I felt a tug 
Em7               A 
I ran to little India 
    Bm                G 
To find a beggar's clarity 
A                           A A D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 
And eat the spice of deities 

Bridge 
D 
When I close my eyes 
           G 
Imagine us dead and gone 
                    Em 
The bright light of kingdom come 
            A 
But I can't see 
D 
Take it out of my hands 
          G 
I want to know the truth 
               Em 
The eye of the eagle 
           A 
To deliver me 
     G           F#      
I'm happy in the sorrow
