Hey! This is my first attempt at figuring out chords to a song, so forgive me if there
are any mistakes! To be honest, it most probably will, but meh. This is the acoustic
version of the song, but if you prefer to play it with the amp and the overdrive/gain
thingy, then it's your choice :)
I guess it would be best to listen to the song first to figure out the strumming
pattern... Also, I have corrected the spelling mistakes in the lyrics, but if you find
any then
please point them out to me :)
Song: Weight Of The World
Artist: Young Guns
Album: All Our Kings Are Dead
Year: 2010
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
Intro: - F# C# G# - F# C# G# -
[Bbm] A continent of d[F#]oubt
Weighs [Bbm]heavy [C#]on my m[G#]ind
[Bbm] How long can my br[F#]ittle bones bend
Bef[Bbm]ore they y[C#]ield and s[G#]nap?
I don't wanna k[Bbm]now
'Cause I'm so sc[C#]ared,
It's not gonna get [A#m]easi--[G#]er than t[F#]his
[-] [F#] [-]
Because it's t[F#]oo much to [C#]bear my d[G#]arlin'
[F#]The weight [C#]of the w[G#]orld,
And I would [F#]carry it for [C#]you,
But please[G#] don't ask me to because the
[F#] Weight [C#]of the [G#]world
Is a burden I can't bea[F#]r.[C#][G#]
Is a burden I can't bea[F#]r.[C#][G#]
[Bbm] Maybe it's gravit[F#]y
That [Bbm]pulls her [C#]to my ch[G#]est,
[Bbm] Not the fear that s[F#]he is the source
Of what little [Bbm] str[C#]ength I've got left[G#],
I don't wanna k[Bbm]now
'Cause I'm so s[C#]cared,
It's not gonna get [A#m]easi--[G#]er than[F#] this
[-] [F#] [-]
Because it's [F#]too much to [C#]bear my d[G#]arlin'
[F#] The weight [C#]of the w[G#]orld,
And I would [F#]carry it for [C#]you,
But p[G#]lease don't ask me to because the
[F#] Weight [C#]of the [G#]world
Is a burden I can't bear.
[-] [F#] [-]
[F#] My horizon lies a jag[A#m]ged [G#]line,
[F#] Oh I can c[C#]learly [G#]see,
[F#] The mountains that I've [A#m]yet to [G#]climb,
I'll g[C#]et there [A#m]if it [G#]kills me.

F# (hold)
Is a burden I can't bear.
