Standing in the Way
Joss Whedon


Tempo : 80 bpm
Key : F


|4/4  F              F#dim        |G        D     Am
GILES:    You're not ready for the world outside.
|F               F#dim           |G         D     Am
     You keep pretending but you just can't hide.
|F               C               |Am               Bb
        I know I said that I'd be standing by your side
   |Am     |Gsus2  G
But I...

|F                 F#dim          |G     D     Am
   You're path's unbeaten and it's all uphill
|F               F#dim          |G     D     Am
     And you can meet it but you never will.
|F               C                 |Am       Bb
     And I'm the reason that you're standing still.
   |Am   |G6/9  G
But I...

              |F       G
I wish I could say the right words
   |Em                     F
To lead you through this land.
            |Am         G/B
Wish I could play the father
   |C               F
And take you by the hand.
            |Eb   Bb
Wish I could stay here
   |Ab    Abm  Eb
But now I understand...
   |Cm             |F
I'm standing in the way.


|F                 F#dim              |G       D     Am
       The cries around you, you don't hear at all.
|F                 F#dim          |G         D     Am
       'Cause you know I'm here to take that call.
|F               C                 |Am                 Bb
     So you just lie there when you should be standing tall.
    |Am     |G6/9    G
 But I...

              |F        G
I wish I could lay your arms down
   |Em               F
And let you rest at last.
            |Am        G/B
Wish I could slay your demons
   |C                 F
But now that time has passed.
            |Eb   Bb
Wish I could stay here,
    |Ab       Abm      Eb
Your stalwart standing fast.
       |Cm              |F
But I'm standing in the way.
        |Cm              |F  ||
I'm just standing in the way.

<BUFFY:Did you just say something?>
