Chord They Werent There by Missy Higgins

C Am F G C you breathed infinity into my world Am and time was lost up in a cloud and in a whirl . F G C we dug a hole in the cool grey earth and lay there for the night . Am F then you said , "wait for me we’ll fly the wind , G we’ll grow old and you’ll be stronger without him" C Am F but oh now , my world is at your feet . i was lost and i was found , G C but i was alive and now i’ve drowned . Am F so now i will be waiting for the world to hear my song Am F G so they can tell me i was wrong . Am but they weren’t there beneath your stare , F and they weren’t stripped ’till they were bare of C G any bindings from the world outside that room . Am and they weren’t taken by the hand F and led through fields of naked land C G where any pre - conceived ideas were blown away . Am G F so i couldn’t say "no" . you sighed and i was lost in you , weeks could’ve past for all i knew . you were there blanket of the over - world and so i couldn’t say , i wouldn’t say "no" . but they all said , "you’re too young to even know , just don’t let it grow and you’ll be stronger without him" but oh , now , my world is at your feet . i was lost and i was found , but i was alive and now i’ve drowned . so now i will be waiting for the world to hear my song so they can tell me i was wrong . but they weren’t there beneath your stare , and they weren’t stripped ’till they were bare of any bindings from the world outside that room . and they weren’t taken by the hand and led through fields of naked land where any pre - conceived ideas were blown away . . . but they weren’t there beneath your stare , and they weren’t stripped ’till they were bare of any bindings from the world outside that room . and they weren’t taken by the hand and led through fields of naked land where any pre - conceived ideas were blown away . . . so i couldn’t say "no" .
