Bridgerton Musical - Balancing The Scales Cifras

[Verse 1]
 
Bb               Bb     Bb/A
  Balancing the scale
Bb/F         Eb
All my job entails
                            Bb        F      Eb
Making sure that they’re prepared to see the world
F                    Gm            F
Making sure they’re fine on their own
             Cm               Bb
When they’re old and they’re grown
                 Ab
And all I see is shadows
         Eb/Bb                F             Bb
But that doesn’t make it easier to let them go
 
 
Bb   Bb/A Bb/F   Eb F
 
Bb    F    Eb    F
Oh oh oh oh oh
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Bb                 Bb
  I walk past the doors
        Bb/A      Bb/F       Eb
And the corridors where they grew
     F            Bb   F               Gm      D
And all I feel is emptiness from this emptying nest
               Gm
Edmund are you there?
         F
I was unaware
    Eb             Bb              Ab
How difficult it’d be without you there
           Fm   F
I was unprepared
 
 
[Chorus]
               Gb
Balancing the scales
Ebm                          E
  I did the best I could but still I have failed
Dbm          Db
Still I have failed
 
               Gb
Balancing the scales
Ebm                              E           Abm   Db
  Want them to see the world but I'll always care
 
 
[Outro]
              Gb        Gb/F   Gb/Db
Balancing the scales
              B
All my job entails
                             Gb      Db      B
Making sure that they’re prepared to see the world
Bb               Ebm
Making sure they learn
                    Db
Making sure they’re perfect
                  B               Gb                  E
Making sure their worth is always something that they know
       Db
But it doesn’t make it easier
            Gb    Gb/F   Gb/Db
To let them go
