The Ground We Stand On Chords & Lyrics by Hawksley Workman
The Ground We Stand On
guitar chords lyrics
This is the studio version from the album MEAT
D A
It's so cold here and I miss you.
Bm
And I can't help feeling broken.
D A
I treat myself like I'm not fragile.
Bm
Like there's no care to be taken.
D A
And I was up last night just thinking
Bm
A hundred reasons to be sorry.
D A
Why don't you come and lay beside me
Bm
Since there's too much now that's vacant.
*REFF:
G D
And oh the time that we keep wasting,
A
Like we don't know
Bm
The joy that's hard to bear.
G D
For the ground that we stand on
A
Won't long be there.
D A
I pray that we will never tire
Bm
Of the work that lies before us.
D A
I feel that I will be the weak one
Bm
And that you will have to carry me.
D A
I hope there never is a phone call
Bm
To say that it's too dark to keep trying.
D A
I hope there's time left to discover
Bm
How to cry at all the beauty.
Back to REFF
Interlude: D A Bm (2x)
*Back to REFF
D A
I guess it's me there in the mirror
Bm
But I can't say that I know him.
D A
When you tell me that you love me
Bm
There's no reason I should doubt you.
