Hozier - Who We Are

[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
D Bm F#
You only feel it when it’s lost
G D
Gettin’ through still has a cost
Bm F#
Quietly, it slips through your fingers love
G D
Falling from you drop by drop
Bm F#
What I had left here I just held it tight
G D Bm
So someone with your eyes might come in time
F#
To hold me like water
G D
Or Christ, hold me like a knife

[Chorus]
D Bm
We’re born at night
F#
So much of our lives
G D
Is just carvin’ through the dark
Bm
To get so far
F#
And the hardest part
G
Is who we are
D
It’s who we are

[Verse 2]
D Bm F#
You and I burned out our steam
G D
Chasing someone else’s dream
Bm F#
How can somethin’ be so much heavier
G D
But so much less than what it seems
Bm
Darling, we sacrificed
F# G D
We gave our time to somethin’ undefined
Bm F#
This phantom life, it sharpens like an image
G D
But it sharpens like a knife

[Chorus]
D Bm
We’re born at night
F#
So much of our lives
G D
Is just carvin’ through the dark
Bm
To get so far
F#
And the hardest part
G
Is who we are
D
It’s who we are

[Interlude]

[Outro]
D Bm F#
You only feel it when it’s lost
G D
Gettin’ through still has its cost
Bm F#
Quietly, it slips through your fingers love
G D
Fallin’ from you drop by drop
