Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 3 half steps down [ -3 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 3 to stay in the same key

Intro: Cm
 
Verse 1:
Cm
There is a roadway, muddy and foxgloved
   Cm                                                Cm
Never I'd have life enough, my heart is screamin' out
Cm
And in a few days I would be there, love
    Cm                                              Ab
Whatever here that's left of me is yours just as it was
 
Pre-Chorus:
Ab          Bb    Gm
Just as it was, baby
           Cm        Eb    Fm   Ab
Before the otherness came
                     Bb    Gm
And I knew its name
                        Gm         Fm
The love, the dark, the light, the flame
 
Chorus:
    Cm                         Bb
The eyes at the heights of my baby
           Eb                      Fm
And let's hope the fight of my baby
      Ab                         Cm
The lights were as bright as my baby
Ab                    Cm    Cm
But your love was unmoved
 
Verse 2:
Cm
Tell me if somehow, some of it remained
Cm
How long you would wait for me?
Cm                       Cm
How long I've been away?
Cm
The shape that I'm in now, your shape in the doorway
Cm
Make your good love known to me
Cm                           Ab
Just tell me 'bout your day
 
Pre-Chorus:
Ab          Bb    Gm
Just as it was, baby
           Cm        Eb    Fm   Ab
Before the otherness came
                     Bb    Gm
And I knew its name
                        Gm         Fm
The drugs, the dark, the light, the shame
 
Chorus:
    Cm                         Bb
The eyes at the heights of my baby
           Eb                      Fm
And this hope at the fight of my baby
      Ab                         Cm
The lights were as bright as my baby
Ab                    Cm
But your love was unmoved
 
Outro:
        Cm                         Bb
And the sights were as stark as my baby
        Eb                       Fm
And the cold was as sharp as my baby
        Ab                         Cm
And the nights were as dark as my baby
    Ab             Cm
Half as beautiful too
