or caught you bent around?

Why would I now?

And though the years, they may upbraid you.
Bm Bm C C G G D D
How it all nearly unmade you laying down.

Why would it now?

Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
Remember when it all went dark?
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
Remember when it first rent apart?
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
Remember how I held my mark?
C C G G
So why wouldn't I now?

D D C C G G
For I will never be your familiar soul.
D D C C G G
I will never see your imperial whole.
Em Em C C G G
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall,
C C G G
ditched your call,
C C G G D D
or caught you bent around?
G G
Why would I now?
