(D)

D
Love can make you weep
Em                     D
Can make you run for cover
                     Bm
Roots that spread so deep
G                    D
Bring life to frozen ground


CHORUS
G            D
Something so strong
G                  B    A
Could carry us away
G            D
Something so strong
G                   A
Could carry us today

Turning in my sleep
Love can leave you cold
Taste of jealousy
Is like a lust for gold

Chorus

G*   D/F#  D              D/C#
I've been feeling so much older
G     D/F#   A
Frame me and hang me on the wall
G    D/F#     D             D/C#
I've seen you fall into the same trap
G    D/F#     A
This thing is happening to us all
