Weight Cifras

Weight by Dave Simonett
 
An unreleased song that is only available from a fans footage posted on youtube...
great tune though. Hopefully a recorded track will be put  out soon. As for the
lyrics, I am unsure of the first verse but the rest is correct I believe.
 
Standard Tuning
Capo 3
 
Intro: G – Bm – C  x2  Em – D – G – D - G
 
 G      Bm       C       G         Bm                 C
Lock it up my pretender, I thought I would know you better
 G      B7    Em     D         C
Like a child, high above the weather 
G           D                             G
I saw you sinking with the weight of the world
 G        Bm                    C
All your cuts are getting deep now
 G           Bm                  C
And all you want to do is sleep now
G          B7      Em D      C
I could go on, but I don’t really see how
 G           D                       G
And here we are at the edge of the world
 
Chorus
 D           B7                           Em
Like a bird you come to my window in the dead of night
                  C                        C7
To see if were alright, moonlight in your eyes
 
And then you’ll go…
 
G   Bm  C
Ooooo…  oooo…
G   Bm  C
Ooooo…  oooo…
 
G – B7 – Em – D – C
 
G             Bm           C
It seems like so long ago that…
G             Bm                 C
I watched you pack it up and go there…
G           B7           Em    D    C
And still I cry cause I don’t know why..
G                D                       G
We could never stand the weight of the world
 
(Chorus)
 
Outro: G – Bm – C  x2  Em – D – G – D - G
