           Cm                         G#
There's a hole in my pocket where my dreams
fell through
        D#                          Gm
From a side walk in the city to the avenue
           Cm                       G#
There's a leak in my dam 'bout the size of a pin
      D#
And I can't quite remember where
    Gm
the water's getting in

                G#
But when you're wearing on your sleeve
         Fm
All the things you regret
        Cm                      D#
You can only remember what you want to forget
          G#
You feel it tugging at your heart
          Fm
Like the stars overhead
          Cm                     A#
'til you rest your bones on the killing bed

Chorus:
A#        G#
Let them roll over me
G#        Fm
Let them roll over me
Fm      D#      A# 
When I doubt you
          G#
Let them roll over me
G#        Fm
Let them roll over me
Fm      D#        A# 
When I doubt you

With the weight of the world resting on my back
And the road on which I've travelled is
as long as it is cracked
But I keep pressing forward with my feet
to the ground
For a heart that is broken makes a beautiful sound

When you're wearing on your sleeve
all the things you regret
You can only remember what you want to forget

Chorus

I walk through my days like a ghost in a dream
But the feel carries on and my past follows me
It's hard moving on from the things you done wrong
When they play in your head like an
old-fashioned song

When you're wearing on your sleeve
all the things you regret
You can only remember what you want to forget

       Cm G#           D#  A# 
Lonely miles, without you
       Cm G#           D#  A# 
Lonely miles, without you
A#        G#
Let them roll over me
G#        Fm
Let them roll over me
Fm      D#       A# 
When I doubt you
A#        G#
Let them roll over me
G#        Fm
Let them roll over me
Fm     D#        A# 
When I doubt you

Let them roll over me
Let them roll over me
When I doubt you
Let them roll over me
Let them roll over me
Let them roll over me
Let them roll over me
Let the ground keep my faults
Let the water be my home
Let the dust hold my soul
Like a holy rolling stone
