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