Neck Deep - Candour: chords

      Am
Yesterday saw you missing
              F
Drawn to the light in the
                      G
distance Holding her hand
while she listened She
Am            F
told him how much she would
                       G
miss him Said his goodbyes
to his children And let
     Am          F
the weight fade away

Chorus:
Am
I have your hands
                        F
But I have my mother's eyes
Your tact and poise And her
                   Am
sense of wrong and right
Heard you awake in the
               F
middle of the night Letting
go of the things you keep inside

G
Worked your fingers
Am      F
to the bone To be sent
                       G
home with a cardboard box
                  Am
Filled with everything
         F
you've known All things
come to be loved and lost

Chorus:
Am
I'll keep a moment sealed
                  G/B      C
in time inside a picture frame
F
A small reminder of the days
                 G
I thought would never change
Am                     G/B
They always say it's clear to
C  F
see How parts of you shine
G            Am
through in me  I think you know
     G               F
you won't be here forever
And you're counting down the
Am
days until you can rest your
       G                     F
tired eyes and let it slip away

F                            G
The lessons learned at your side
                         Am
Will stay with me all my life
The man I hope to become I
                     F
know is deep down inside
            G
I know you don't even need
    Am
to say I know you're proud
             F G Am
in your own way     I know
                          F  G Am
you're proud in your own way

Chorus:
F
And you watched me grow up
      G
As I watched you grow older
     Am
The chip off your block
held me up on your shoulders
F         G              Am
I wish I told you yesterday
