Tuning: Standard EADGBe

Intro: - [F#] [C#] [G#] - [F#] [C#] [G#] -

[Bbm] A continent of d[F#]oubt
Weighs [Bbm]heavy [C#]on my m[G#]ind
[Bbm] How long can my br[F#]ittle bones bend
Bef[Bbm]ore they y[C#]ield and s[G#]nap'

I don't wanna k[Bbm]now
'Cause I'm so sc[C#]ared,
It's not gonna get [A#m]easi--[G#]er than t[F#]his

- [F#] -
Because it's t[F#]oo much to [C#]bear my d[G#]arlin'
[F#]The weight [C#]of the w[G#]orld,
And I would [F#]carry it for [C#]you,
But please[G#] don't ask me to because the
[F#] Weight [C#]of the [G#]world
Is a burden I can't bea[F#]r. [C#] [G#]

Is a burden I can't bea[F#]r. [C#] [G#]


[Bbm] Maybe it's gravit[F#]y
That [Bbm]pulls her [C#]to my ch[G#]est,
[Bbm] Not the fear that s[F#]he is the source
Of what little [Bbm] str[C#]ength I've got left[G#] ,

I don't wanna k[Bbm]now
'Cause I'm so s[C#]cared,
It's not gonna get [A#m]easi--[G#]er than[F#] this

- [F#] -
Because it's [F#]too much to [C#]bear my d[G#]arlin'
[F#] The weight [C#]of the w[G#]orld,
And I would [F#]carry it for [C#]you,
But p[G#]lease don't ask me to because the
[F#] Weight [C#]of the [G#]world

Is a burden I can't bear.

- [F#] -

[F#] My horizon lies a jag[A#m]ged [G#]line,
[F#] Oh I can c[C#]learly [G#]see,
[F#] The mountains that I've [A#m]yet to [G#]climb,
I'll g[C#]et there [A#m]if it [G#]kills me.

Because it's[F#] too much to [C#]bear my d[G#]arlin'
[F#] The weight [C#]of the w[G#]orld,
And I would [F#]carry it for [C#]you,
But p[G#]lease don't ask me to because the
[F#] Weight [C#]of the [G#]world

Is a burden I can't
Bea[F#]r. [C#] [G#]
Can't bea[F#]r, [C#] [G#]

And I would [F#]carry it for y[C#]ou,
But pl[G#]ease don't ask me to because the
[F#] Weight o[C#]f the w[G#]orld
[F#] (hold)
Is a burden I can't bear.
