My Chasm

G A G A
      G                      A
I am a container of stories about you
                G                  A        Bm
And I bring you up repeatedly, uninvited to
               G                              A                 Bm
Do the people around me want to keep hearing about my dead wife?
            G                     A
Or does the room go silent when I mention you?
         Bm
Shining alive
                  G
I live with your absence
                  A                     Bm
And it's been two months since you died
                    G                              A                   Bm
I'll speak to your absence and carry our stories around my whole life
                G                                A                  Bm
But when I'm in public, I don't know what's that look in their eyes
                G                     A
I now wield the power to transform a grocery
                   F#m                 G
Store aisle into a canyon of pity and confusion
    F#m              G
And mutual aching to leave
F#m    G
Mmm
F#m    G
Mmm
    G                    A                      F#m
The loss in my life is a chasm I take into town
                         G
And I don't wanna close it
        A
Look at me
         Bm
Death is real
