Lyrics & chords
[Verse 1]
[D]This song has always been one of my favorites, for some reason. It wasn't a single. We didn't really play it in concert (just once, that I can remember). It rarely stuck out to people as a "strong" song off of the album,
but I always [Bsus4]liked it. I think the recording (with the preceding [A]*mess- up*) is very cool. I al[D]ways dug the really large [Bsus4]'tom' drums at the beginning *AND* the bridge remains one of my person[D]al favorites!
[Verse 2]
Lyrically this song is pretty straight forward, I think. It talks about [D]our usual difficulties, that is, being "worn out" and dealing with a new day ('is it daybreak'). The chorus [Bsus4]wraps up the essence of the problem,
"I can't hold this weight upon my shoulders anymore...". What this song does very differ[D]ently is it wraps up the solution in the bridge... in (4) short lines... "so I.... give all.... to You.... my God". That's it. Enough said.
[Interlude 1]
[Bsus4][B][F#m][Bsus4][B][F#m][Bsus4][B][F#m][Bsus4][B][F#m]
[B]
Is [F#m]it daybreak?
[Verse 3]
I'm [B]sure
And [F#m]you're [D]feeling weary
[F#m][Bsus4][B]
There [F#m]is so much, I k[B]now
It's [F#m]just got to end soon
[Verse 4]
[A]well, I can't hold this weight
[E]Upon my shoulders [G]anymore
My bones are breaking
[D]Hands are shaking
[Interlude 2]
With everything
[D][Bsus4][B][F#m]
[Bsus4][B][F#m][Bsus4][B]
are [F#m]you worn
[Verse 5]
out? I'm [B]sure
[F#m]Not happy ne[B]arly
Too [F#m]far in such to kn[B]ow
You [F#m]just have to break s[A]oon
[Verse 6]
well, I can't [A]hold this weight
[E]Upon my shoulders [G]anymore
My bones are breaking
[D]Hands are shaking
With everything
[Bsus4][A][D]
[Verse 7]
so [Bsus4]I
Give [D]all
To [Bsus4]you
[D]My God
[Verse 8]
[A]
well, I can't hold this weight
[E]Upon my shoulders [G]anymore
My bones are breaking
[D]Hands are shaking
[A]With everything
[Verse 9]
well, I can't [A]hold this weight
[E]Upon my shoulders anymore
[Bsus4]My bones [G]are breaking
My bones are breaking
My bones are breaking
My bones are [D]breaking
