TUNING: C# Standard (Down a Step and a Half)

Intro:
F C Am/Asus2
F C Am/Asus2 C   x3

F                     C               Am/Asus2
It's no wonder I've felt so tired
F 			       C	             Am/Asus2  G5
I've witnessed the careless all running past me
F			C	     Am/Asus2
While I've been told to ignore my desires
F	   	         C		Am/Asus2  G5
And grow numb with understanding

Dm
I walk through theses woods
C
I carry this deadwood
Dm		 C	      C
I am determined to see this through
Dm		     C
Driven only by the guilt and the shame of giving up
Dm		  C		    C
I must complete what I set out to do - For you

F		     C                 Am/Asus2
It stayed on a shelf made of my arms
F				C      Am/Asus2   G5
They had grown strong from giving support
F			      C          Am/Asus2
I knew that my arms could hold out forever
F		C	  Am/Asus2
It was my mind that'd grow tired

Dm 		  C
It's been so long since I have questioned
Dm         C       C
What it is that I really want
Dm		C
Instead I follow your directions
Dm		     C
As you lead me on
          C		     F
I can't use it to build my home
Am    C                      F      C
It will not fulfill my desires
Am   C		      F                             C
Some wood can be used to help build a life
Am   C                F                         C    Am
This wood will be used for building a fire

Am G5 Fsus2 Gsus2 Am

Asus2		Am
Why carry this deadwood with me…
Asus2		Am
…when were I'm going there will be living trees

F		 E5 F      		   E5 D5 E5
Now close enough to carry it all to the end
F			  G5
But throwing it all to the ground instead

Solo: Am C F5 F5/A F5/D

Am
This bundle of deadwood
C
The pieces they fall
             F5				      F5/A
Corners indent the soil and accumulate on one another
            F5/D
Tumble down and pile up

Am		     C
It awkwardly spills like myself at a time
            F5
Like the time it had killed
                F5/A                 F5/D
Like every moment after it was collected and held

Am         C D      A
I'd give up all that I started
Am  C    D            A
To pursue all that I wanted
Am     C     D       A
I may arrive empty handed
Am    C              D        A
But at least I will arrive
