C
Desdemona, help yourself
G Am G
I hear you mourning at the dawn
C
Desdemona, ask which side
G
Of all this lying are you on
C
Did you build yourself a runway?
Did you tell yourself tomorrow?
G
Did you cry?
C
And are you dressed in hesitation
G
when you tell yourself that everything's alright?
Em D C
Cause I see a distance in your smile
G
And what your Mondays have become
C
could be the rest of your life
Am Bm
Desdemona, you're not dead yet
C
No it's not wrong
Am D
If you want everything in life under the sun
G C
Under the sun
G Am G C
Under the sun
Desdemona, you're in love
G
Do not forget about yourself
C
Desdemona, bring the people
G A Am G
That you love inside your hell
C
Cause you are younger in the eyes of those who see you
G Am G
Please forget about the time
C
And throw yourself out on these brave and empty branches
G Am G
In the winter waiting high.
Em D G C
'Cause everybody's out there killing time
Em D G C
And I will be damned to let you stand here killing mine.
Am D G C
Don't you know we're gonna change a whole world today
Am G D
We stop waiting on the world to change

C
Desdemona, we are not so very different
G Am G
Do you see?
C
And at the moment braver still
G
Than what our minds let us believe
C
Even the walls that will surround you
G C G Am G
Somehow steady by your very own hands
C
I don't know just how to change you
G
All I know is how to tell you that you can
Em D C
Cause I'll never tell you how to live
Em D G
But you keep on telling me
That's just the way it is
Am C
Desdemona more then anything I know
G A Am G Am D
Never tell yourself that's just the way it goes
C
I know it goes
G Am G C
But what do I know
G Am G C
G A Am G
