D                 Em7       G
Line of people to pass you by,
       D                   Em7        G
Posing sympathy with their whitewash eyes
D                     Em7       G
Ladies feigning their mourning cries
        D                 Em7       G
And the men shaking hands

[Chorus]
A      G
Weigh  Away
A   G
Way away
G       C                D/F#
All the pictures in your mind
          G           D         Cadd9
As you're passed the thousandth time
           Cadd9
Thousandth photograph

[Verse 2]
D               Em7    G
Listen to sympathetic lies
         D                    Em7       G
As their reasons change under mourning guise
         D                  Em7       G
With the gentlemen feigning sorrowed sighs
    D                   Em7     G
And drinking champagne

[Chorus]
A     G
Weigh Away
A   G
Way away
G          C               D/F#
As all the people pass and pose
         G        D         Cadd9
You hold back the tears and hold
     Cadd9
On to memories

[Verse 3]
D                       Em7    G
Small talk hangs like a dirty cloud
       D                Em7        G
Saying nothing real but deafening loud
   D                Em7       G
An urge to run away from the crowd
    D               Em7       G
And mourn all alone
D                 Em7 G
Make a promise to no-one
D                  Em7        G
Wondering if you'd been worthwhile
D                  Em7  G
Turn away from the chatter
        D             Em7  G
And the hungry smiles
