Glorious You (acoustic)

(For main album version, no capo.)




-verse 1-




I can see that you re hurting beneath your new red dress.


Beneath your sharp new shoes and you new tattos,


You are directionless.


And I know you ve been working as hard as you can


To pre-empt the question, the expectation,


And I understand.

-Chorus-





So come on now, if we all pull together,


We could lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Just for a moment or two.

-verse 2-


From the moment the phone alarm breaks the morning in two,


To the moment you close your bedroom door


And all that s left is you.


There were a dozen auditions you didn t quite get through,


So many masks to wear, so much weight to bear,


But you were only ever you, you were glorious you,


You were glorious.

-Chorus-


So come on now, if we all pull together,


We could lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Just for a moment or two.


So come on now, if we all pull together,


We could lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Just for a moment or two.

-BRIDGE-


And be glorious you, glorious you, glorious you.


With your mixed up metaphors, your messed up make-up,


You re glorious you,


With your tongue-tied tragedy and too small T-shirts,


Glorious you.

-verse 3-


So don t you worry, all things must end.

Fma7
There are sunlit uplands around the river bend.

-Chorus-


So come on now, if we all pull together,


We could lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Just for a moment or two.


So come on now, if we all pull together,


We could lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Lift up the weight of the world from your shoulders,


Just for a moment or two.


And be glorious you, glorious you, glorious you.


You were glorious you, glorious you, glorious you.
