you should really hear the original song to get the rhythms right
[intro]
D Em G (3x)
(When you play the D, you should hammer on the A on the 3rd string)
[verse1]
[D]Line of people to [Em]pass you [G]by,
Posing [D]sympathy with its [Em]whitewash [G]eyes
[D]Ladies feigning their [Em]mourning [G]cries
And the [D]men shaking hands[Em] [G]
[cborus]
[A]Weigh [G]Away
[A]Way [G]away
[G]All the [C]pictures in your mind
As you're [G]passed the thousandth time
Thousandth [Em]photograph[G]
[verse2]
[D]Listen to sympat[Em]hetic [G]lies
As their [D]reasons change under [Em]mourning [G]guise
With the [D]gentlemen feigning [Em]sorrowed [G]sighs
And [D]drinking champagne[Em] [G]
[cborus]
[A]Weigh [G]Away
[A]Way [G]away
[G]As all the [C]people pass and pose
You hold [G]back the tears and hold
On to [Em]memories[G]
[verse3]
[D]Small talk hangs like a [Em]dirty [G]cloud
Saying [D]nothing real but [Em]deafening [G]loud
An [D]urge to run away [Em]from the [G]crowd
And [D]mourn all alone[Em] [G]
[D]Make a promise to [Em]no-[G]one
[D]Wondering if you'd [Em]been worth[G]while
[D]Turn away from the [Em]chat[G]ter
And the [D]hungry smiles[Em] [G]
