C
There are moments that the words don't reach
Dm
There is suffering too terrible to name
Bb
You hold your child as tight as you can
F
And push away the unimaginable
C
The moments when you're in so deep
Dm
It feels easier to just swim down
Bb
The Hamiltons move uptown
F
And learn to live with the unimaginable
C
I spend hours in the garden
Dm
I walk alone to the store
Bb
And it's quiet uptown
F
I never liked the quiet before
C
I take the children to church on Sunday
Dm
A sign of the cross at the door
Bb
And I pray
F
That never used to happen before
C
Walking by himself, talking to himself
Dm
Have pity
Bb
Phillip, you would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown
F
He is working through the unimaginable
C
He passes every day
Dm
They say he walks the length of the city
Bb
You knock me out, I fall apart
F
Can you imagine?
C
Look at where we started
Dm
I know I don't deserve you, Eliza
Bb
But hear me out, that would be enough
F
If I could spare his life
C
Dm
If I could trade his life for mine
Bb
He'd be standing here right now
And you would smile
C
And that would be enough
Dm
Am
I don't pretend to know the challenges we're facing
Bb
I know there's no replacing what we've lost
F
And you need time
C
But I'm not afraid
I know who I married
Dm
Bb
Just let me stay here by your side
F
That would be enough
C
Walking by her side
Talking by her side
Dm
Have pity
Bb
It's quiet uptown
F
He is trying to do the unimaginable
C
See them walking in the park, long after dark
Dm
Taking in the sights of the city
Bb
Look around, look around, Eliza
F
They are trying to do the unimaginable
C
There are moments that the words don't reach
Dm
There is a grace too powerful to name
Bb
We push away what we can never understand
F
We push away the unimaginable
C
They are standing in the garden
Dm
Alexander by Eliza's side
Bb
She takes his hand
F
It's quiet uptown
C
Forgiveness
Can you imagine?
Dm
Bb
Forgiveness
Can you imagine?
F
If you see him in the street
C
Walking by her side
Talking by her side
Dm
Have pity
Bb
F
They are going through the unimaginable
