Tenth Avenue North - Oh My Dear

Intro:
    F  A#  F  A#
    F  Am  A#

Verse:
  F                          A#
I called you up, you were in bed,
             F                           A#
could barely make out the words that you said
        F                   Am            A#
But you wanted to see me instead, so I got dressed
      F                    A#         F                    A#
and I stepped out into the snow, and walked for a mile or so
	 F                           Am         A#
Felt the rush of blood come from the cold, in my chest

Interlude -x2-: Dm F Gm A#

Verse:
         F                   A#
Well you finally came to the door,
       F                     A#
and we talked for an hour or more
        F                              Am
Until I asked if you would stay up til four,
                A#
you said that's fine.
               F                           A#
But you said, "there's something I have to say,
      F                          A#
and I can't because I'm just so afraid"
         F                          Am          A#
And so I held you as you started to shake, that night

Pre-Chorus:
Dm    F          Gm       A#
Oh my dear, I'll wait for you
Dm      F          Gm      A#
Grace tonight will pull us through

Chorus:
	  F                    Am
Until the tears have left your eyes
	  Dm                A#
Until the fear can sleep at night
	  F                  Am
Until the demons that you're scared of
Dm           A#
Disappear inside
	   F               Am
Until this scale begins to crack
        Dm                     G
And the weight falls from your back
      Dm                  C            F
Oh my dear, I'll keep you in my arms tonight

Interlude: F A# F A#

Verse:
           F                          A#
You slowly lifted your head from your hands
            F                                  A#
You said "I just don't think that you'll understand
             F                    Am
You'll never look at me that way again
                   A#
if you knew what I did"
            F                         A#
And so your tears fell and melted the snow
            F                  A#
You told me secrets nobody had known
      F                          Am
But I never loved you more, even though
                    A#
Now I know what you did

Pre-Chorus:
Dm    F          Gm       A#
Oh my dear, I'll wait for you
Dm      F          Gm      A#
Grace tonight will pull us through

Chorus:
	  F                    Am
Until the tears have left your eyes
	  Dm                 A#
Until the fears can sleep at night
	  F                  Am
Until the demons that you're scared of
Dm           A#
Disappear inside
	   F               Am
Until this scale begins to crack
        Dm                     G
And the weight falls from your back
      Dm                  C
Oh my dear, I'll keep you in my arms...
