Dm Am G F x2
DmAGFDmAmF
I- I'm a wall of sand, and stone,
DmAmG
and you - you're some kind of ivy
FDmGm
I'm trying to hold
FGm

if you let fall

GF
when you've got nowhere to go
except into the terrible air?
AmGAmG
And I - I think you're fantastic,
AmGAmG
and I - I know that you care.
AmGAmG
I'll put my rockets away,
AmG
if you let fall
AmG

as best as I can.
