Verse
G Em7 Em
I am a liar if I say that I don't bleed
C D
But I'm afraid that my admission of my needs might
G
look a little bit like greed
C G
G Em7 Em
I am a liar if I say that I don't see
C D
Every callus on your heart that's growing deeper every
G
time you carry me
C G
[Chorus]
Em7 Em
Can you share the burden?
D
Can you walk within my shoes?
G D
I can see your back is breaking but my weary bones
G
are too
C G
G
Can you keep your arms around me?
Em7 Em
Can you whisper in my ear?
C D
All the stories of adventures that we took before we
G
ended up out here
[Verse]
G Em7 Em
I know the year is passing and I know that it's not fair
C D
That it led us both astray inside this maze all full of
G
anger and despair
C G
[Chorus]
Em7 Em
Can you share the burden?
D
Can you read the moonlight home?
C G D
I can see your eyes are fading but I just can't bear to
G
be alone
C G
[Verse]
G
In the summer night is fickle
Em7 Em
As it's flirting with the dawn
C D
Painting shapes on the horizon in the colours of the
G
never setting sun
C G
Em7 Em
But I still need the respite, the cosmic kiss to sleep
C D
I need the gentle arms of darkness to take the
G
pressure off my feet
C G
[Chorus]
Em7 Em
Can you share the burden
D
For a season longer please?
C G D
I can see your heart is heavy but I really need you here
G
with me
C G
Em7 Em
Can you share the burden
D
Just a little longer please?
C G D
I can see your heart is heavy but I really need you here
G
with me
[Outro]
