[Intro]
F Am Bb Dm C
[Verse 1]
F                                        Am
There are moments that the words don’t reach
                                    Bb
There is suffering too terrible to name
                                     Dm
You hold your child as tight as you can
   C                           F
And push away the unimaginable
                               Am
The moments when you’re in so deep
                              Bb
It feels easier to just swim down
                      Dm
The Hamiltons move uptown
               C                        F
And learn to live with the unimaginable
                       Am
I spend hours in the garden
                      Bb
I walk alone to the store
                 Dm
And it’s quiet uptown
 C                            F
I never liked the quiet before
                                   Am
I take the children to church on Sunday
                            Bb
A sign of the cross at the door
       Dm
And I pray
    C                            F
That never used to happen before
[Chorus 1]
                             Am
If you see him in the street, walking by himself
                           Bb
Talking to himself, have pity
                                        Dm
Philip, you would like it uptown, it’s quiet uptown
      C                               F
He is working through the unimaginable
                           Am
His hair has gone grey he passes every day)
                                     Bb
They say he walks the length of the city
                          Dm
You knock me out, I fall apart
            C      F
Can you imagine?
[Bridge]
                    Am
Look at where we are
                   Bb
Look at where we started
                                 Dm
I know I don’t deserve you, Eliza
              C
But hear me out
                  F
That would be enough
                      Am
If I could spare his life
                               Bb
If I could trade his life for mine
                             Dm
He’d be standing here right now
                   C                         F
And you would smile, and that would be enough
                    Dm
I don’t pretend to know
                      Am
The challenges we’re facing
                     Bb                 Bbm
I know there’s no replacing what we’ve lost
              F
And you need time
                  Am
But I’m not afraid
                   Bb
I know who I married
                               Dm
Just let me stay here by your side
C                   F
That would be enough
[Chorus 2]
                             Am
If you see him in the street, walking her side
                           Bb
Talking by her side, have pity
                                    Dm
Eliza, do you like it uptown, it’s quiet uptown
     C                             F
He is trying to do the unimaginable
                            Am
See them walking in the park, long after dark
                             Bb
Taking in the sights of the city
                           Dm
Look around, look around, Eliza
        C                             F
They are trying to do the unimaginable
[Verse 2]
                                        Am
There are moments that the words don’t reach
                                  Bb
There is a grace too powerful to name
                                    Dm
We push away what we can never understand
  C                          F
We push away the unimaginable
                          Am
They are standing in the garden
                         Bb
Alexander by Eliza’s side
               Dm  C                  F
She takes his hand   it’s quiet uptown
[Chorus 3]
          Am
Forgiveness
              Bb
Can you imagine?
          Dm
Forgiveness
            C    F
Can you imagine?
                            Am
If you see him in the street, walking by her side
                             Bb  Dm
Talking by her side, have pity
     C
They are going through the unimaginable
