This is a gorgeous song, played in 6/4 time, very slowly. Forgive the funny spacing, I've tried to lay out the chords in correspondence to the words. You really have to hear the song to get it precise though. Intro: CFCFm CAGC C Fm So be it I'm your crowbar C Fm If that's what I am so far C Am G C Until you get out of this mess C Fm And I will pretend C Fm That I don't know of your sins C Am G F Until you are ready to confess F Dm Fm D But all the time, all the time C F C F I'll know, I'll know C Fm And you can use my skin C Fm To bury secrets in C Am G C And I will settle you down C Fm And at my own suggestion C Fm I will ask no questions C A G F While I do my thing in the background F Dm Fm D But all the time, all the time C F C F I'll know, I'll know Bridge: E Am (two measures each chord) E Am Baby -- I can't help you out F C While she's still around C Fm C So for the time being C Fm C Am C I'm being patient C Fm And amidst this bitterness C Fm If you'll just consider this C Am G F Even if it don't make sense Dm Fm D All the time, give it time C Fm C And when the crowd becomes your burden Fm C And you've early closed your curtain Am G C I'll wait by the backstage door C Fm While you try to find C Fm The lines to speak your mind C Am G F And pry it open hoping for an encore Dm Fm D And if it gets too late for me to wait C E C For you to find you love me, and tell me so Am D F G It's ok, don't need to say it...
