It's the weight of the world but it's nothing at all
Cadd9 D Em7*
Light as a prayer, and then I feel myself fall
Cadd9 D Em7*
You got to give me a minute because I'm way down in it and I can't breathe so I can't speak

A crowded room is a burning battlefield

FWill I walk Amnow or be a "Wait and EmRun"
