Verse 1
Em 
Make
a fall and shake and weep
I as holy are my feet
And hard with mention
The dear they may not speak
We feel tight when there is tension
And our eyes can make us weep
Am 
Em 
Esus4 
Em 
And his heart was full of fire
at the man he had become
And his soul was seldom higher
with the falsities of fun
Could embrace sweet desires
in moments as they passed
But he feared it ever more,
Am 
he saw it didn't last
Em 
Am 
Em 
We'd walk up Holland Avenue
and watch the riches they consumed
Their product made our hearts exude
an emptiness unrivaled by
The hunger that I could control
He prayed up to his God
that he might stay there, so
But ah, the gray in this city
is too much to bear
B 
Em 
The gray in this city is too much to bear
And I believe we're meant to be seen
and not to be understood
Am 
Esus4

arms
And you'll work your thumbs
till they're sore
And you'll work my heart till it's raw
And you'll call and you'll call
but you'll never be told
And I'll fall and I'll fall and I'll fall
And I'll fall and I'll fall and I'll fall
