A Mirror is Harder to Hold by Jon Foreman

The other tab on here is in the key of E, and it's alright, but the tone isn't as
nuanced as what Jon plays. Here it is, as he plays it, in the key of C, Capo4

Intro
Am Am/G F
C E7 F
C Gadd4/B A7
F G C(add2 C)
C Gadd4/B
You could stay a while longer
Am Am/G F
We could stay up and talk about last summer
C Gadd4/B
We could go down to the water
Am Am/G F
Watch the sunset going under
Am Am/G F
It's not that I'm a stranger to lonely moments
C E7 F G#
I've had my share of those
C
Please don't go
Em7/B A7
Please don't leave me alone
F G C(add2 -> C)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
C Gadd4/B
I could try and point the finger
Am Am/G F (G->C walk)
But the glass points in my direction
C Gadd4/B
Sure you've got your sharp edges
Am Am/G F
But my wounds are for my own reflection
(/E) Am Am/G F
You've got nothing I could ever hold against you
C E7 F G#
I've got fatal flaws to call my own
C
Please don't go
Em7/B A7
Please don't leave me alone
F G C(add2 -> C)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
Dm G
I met a man who's looking for perfection
Dm G
Said he'd never met a girl who's good enough
E E7 F
His eyes are getting old like they'd love to love again
Am Am/G D/F#
Such a lonely man
G (G7)
Such a lonely man
C Gadd4/B
I see him in my reflection
Am Am/G F (G->C walk)
Taking steps towards me these days
C Gadd4/B
So I hold you that much closer
Am Am/G F
And pray we don't throw this away
Am Am/G F
It's not that I'm a man who couldn't love you
C E7 F G#
I know what these arms are for
C
Please don't go
Em7/B A7
Please don't leave me alone
F G C Gadd4/B
A mirror is so much harder to hold
Am Am/G F (G->C walk)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
C
Please don't go
Em7/B A7
Please don't leave me cold
F G C(add2 -> C)
A mirror is so much harder to hold
