Verse
G# Fm7 Fm
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# Fm7 Fm
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]
Fm7 Fm
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?
Fm7 Fm
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# Fm7 Fm
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]
Fm7 Fm
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
Fm7 Fm
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#
Fm7 Fm
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]
Fm7 Fm
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#
Fm7 Fm
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]
