The Weight Ukulele

(ver. 2)
Thrice
        Em                           Am
There's many who'll tell you they'll give you their love
    C                               Em
But when they say "give" they mean "take"
        Em                                  Am
They'll hang 'round just like vultures 'til push comes to shove
        C                                    Em
They'll take flight when the Earth starts to shake
Em                           Am
Someone may say that they'll always be true
     C                           Em
Then slip out the door 'fore the dawn
      D     C         G       Em
But I won't leave you hangin' on
Em                         Am
Another may stay 'til they find someone new
C                               Em
Then before you know they'll be gone
      D     C         G       Em
But I won't leave you hangin' on
      D        C        G       Em
No, I won't, I won't be that someone

Chorus:

Em            Am            G             Am
And come what may, I won't abandon you or leave you behind
Em                D                    Am            C
Because love is a loyalty sworn, not a burning for a moment
Em            Am             G              Am    
And come what may, I will be standing right here by your side
        Em   D                               Am                C
I won't run away, though the storm's getting worse and there's no end in sight


Em                    Am
Some talk of destiny, others of fate
    C                          Em
But soon they'll be sayin' goodbye
      D     C         G        Em
But I won't leave you high and dry
         Em                             Am
'cause a ring don't mean nothing if you can't haul the weight
    C                       Em
And some of them don't even try
      D     C         G        Em
But I won't leave you high and dry
  D     C         Am        Em
I won't leave you wondering why

Chorus

Em            Am            G             Am
And come what may, I won't abandon you or leave you behind
Em                D                    Am            C
Because love is a loyalty sworn, not a burning for a moment
Em            Am             G              Am   
And come what may, I will be standing right here by your side
        Em   D                               Am                C
I won't run away, though the storm's getting worse and there's no end in sight


Am                     G
And storms will surely come
         Am
But true love is a choice you must make
               G       Am                      Em
And you're the one that I have set my heart to choose
             C       Am                  Em
As long as I live, I swear I'll see this through


Em            Am            G             Am
And come what may, I won't abandon you or leave you behind
Em                D                    Am            C
Because love is a loyalty sworn, not a burning for a moment
Em            Am             G              Am   
And come what may, I will be standing right here by your side
        Em   D                               Am                C
I won't run away, though the storm's getting worse and there's no end in sight

Em
