Hozier - Unknown / Nth: chords

D
You know the distance never made a
              Bm D
difference to me
D
I swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked a
            Bm          D
cross the floor of any sea
D                                            A
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen
    Bm        F#m
And all that we believe
A                             G         D
So I thought you were like an angel to me

Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in
secrecy
If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in
the mind of me
Where a blindin' light shone on you every night
And either side of my sleep
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me

Chorus:
Dsus2
It ain't the being alone
Em7
Sha-la-la
Dsus2                     Em7
It ain't the empty home, baby
    Bm7                 Em7
You know I'm good on my own
            D                       G        D
Sha-la-la, baby, no, it's more the being unknown
                                     G        D
So much of the living, love, is the being unknown

You called me angel for the first time,
my heart leapt from me
You smile now, I can see its pieces still
stuck in your teeth
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick
Every tedious beat
Going unknown as any angel to me

Em7     Bm            G
Do you know I could break beneath the weight
        Em7              A              G
Of the goodness love I still carry for you
Em7       Bm      G
That I'd walk so far just to take
    D          A        G
The injury of finally knowing you

Chorus:
It ain't the being alone (Sha-la-la)
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha-la-la)
You know I'm good on my own (Sha-la-la)
Sha-la-la, baby, you know, it's more the
being unknown
And there are some people, love, who are
better unknown
