[Verse 1]
A#m G# D#
This could be the saddest dusk ever seen,
Fm A#m G# D#
turn to a miracle high-alive.
Fm A#m G# D#
My mind is racing as it always will,
Fm A#m G# D#
my hand is tired, my heart aches, I'm half a world away here.
[Bridge]
Fm F# F# D#
My head sworn to go it alone and hold it along, haul it along,
D# F# F# D# D#
and hold it, go it alone, hold it along and hold.
[Verse 2]
G# D# Fm A#m
Oh, the lonely deep sit hollow, I'm half a world, half the world
G# D# Fm A#m
away, my shoes are gone, my life spent.
G# D# Fm A#m
I had too much to drink, I didn't think and I didn't think
G# D# Fm
of you, I guess that's all I needed
F# F# D# D#
to go it alone and hold it along, haul it along and hold it.
[Chorus]
F# F# D# D#
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall and hold, oh,
G# D# Fm A#m
this lonely world is wasted, pathetic eyes high -
G# D# Fm A#m
alive, blind to the tide that's turned the sea,
G# D# Fm A#m
this storm it came up strong. It shook' the trees and blew away
G# D# Fm
our fear, I couldn't even hear
[Bridge]
F# F# D# D#
to go it alone and hold it along, haul it along and hold it,
F# F# D# D#
to go it alone and hold it along, haul it along and hold it,
F# F# D# D#
to go it alone and hold it along, haul it along and hold it.
[Chorus]
F# F# D# D#
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall and hold, oh,
G# D# Fm A#m
this could be the saddest dusk I ever seen.
G# D# Fm A#m
Turn to a miracle, high-alive, my mind is
G# D# Fm A#m
racing as it always will. My hand is tired,
G# D# Fm A#m D# G#
my heart aches, I'm half a world away. Go.
