[Verse]
           Ab           
I remember way back when
            Eb   
I felt only ennui
                   Eb         
Like nothing could complete me
                Ab        
No promise of a rising sun
Eb                   
Illuminating everyone
         Eb              
The very thought defeated
              Ab           
My life was a blinded light
                       Eb                 
Must be what it's like when worlds collide
                   Eb      
Especially when he sees her
                  Eb       
Pretty soon he'll tease her
             Ab           
I was on the road too long
            Eb             
My laboured lover only song
                  Eb    
Not one of them a keeper


[Chorus]
Eb       Ab                                       
But if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
Cm                                           
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
         Eb                 Bb           
But am I strong enough Am I strong enough
  Ab                                         
I once built a bower I could build you a home
Cm                                 
Together forever but forever and on
         Eb                    Bb             
Is still not long enough still not long enough


[Verse]
                  Ab          
You look confused in your eyes
                Eb               
And I could see myself as a child
       Bb          Fsus4  
Such a devastating feeling
Bb                  Ab             
■  I wished I could go back in time
                       Eb       
But all I could do was apologize
                Bb               
Right then your eyes were healing


[Chorus]
Eb      Bb         Ab                                       
Healing ■  Oh if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
Cm                                           
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
         Eb                 Bb           
But am I strong enough Am I strong enough
  Ab                                         
I once built a bower I could build you a home
Cm                                 
Together forever but forever and on
         Eb                        Bb         
Is still not long enough still not long enough


[Bridge]
             Ab                  Eb  
Oh I've been Cain but I wanna be Abel
       Bb               Eb                    Ab    
Been a drunken fool but I wanted to be stable enough
                       Eb                
To lay every one of my cards on the table
Bb                                            
Hope it's not too late for us to find a way to


[Chorus]
     Ab                                   Cm  
If I woke in the morning to find you were gone
                        Cm                   
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
         Eb                 Bb           
But am I strong enough Am I strong enough
  Ab                                         
I once built a bower I could build you a home
Cm                                 
Together forever but forever and on
             Eb                         Bb         
Is still not long enough it's still not long enough
       Ab                               
I will look get inside myself for a home
Cm                                     
Find only a sapling in search of an oak
          Eb                      Bb           
Better to start my love oh it's a start my love
       Ab             
But am I strong enough
