Hands Like Houses – Weight chords

[Intro]
Am F G x2

[Verse]
AmI'm down below where the floor is out of focus,
F                        Gpent up and played down, rained in and worn out
AmPicking away at the studs in the boards
F                         GThey're all too familiar, I've been here before.
AmThe air is like lead and I've swallowed what I've said.
F                          GI'm a broken machine and a match already burned.
AmAnd I'm quiet, all despite the raging in my head
F                                 GCollapsed inside and out until my strength can return.

[Chorus]
Dm                Am                        C         GI'm undone. All I know is the weight of the world, so empty and so 
        Dm             Am              C           Guninspired. Sorrow and sleep and disbelief, caught up in the weight of
     Amthe world.

[Interlude]
Am F G x1

[Verse]
AmI'm down below where it's silent and it's safe,
    F                            Gresounding with the question of "Where to, from here?"
  AmI know my direction, I know what it takes,
        F                            Gbut I'm weak and I'm weightless with everything to fear.
  AmI write about what's real to me when all I feel is make believe,
     F                                        Gbut I won't say there's nothing left, there's everything, but just out
   Amof reach.

[Chorus]
Dm                Am                        C         GI'm undone. All I know is the weight of the world, so empty and so 
        Dm             Am              C           Guninspired. Sorrow and sleep and disbelief, caught up in the weight of
     Amthe world.

[Bridge]
     C      G      Dm   But I'm not helpless;
 C      G      FI'm not hopeless.
    C          G       Dm                   C             G       AmBut I don't believe in hope on it's own, no spine and no substance.

[Chorus]
Dm                Am                        C         GI'm undone. All I know is the weight of the world, so empty and so 
        Dm             Am              C           Guninspired. Sorrow and sleep and disbelief, caught up in the weight of
     Amthe world.

[Outro]
Am                                        FIt's time to see the floor sink around me, pushed down with my two bare hands and
Am                                  F                   Gnow I'm stronger for whatever comes. Let the blood rush, as I rise to
   Ammy feet.
