        B
É pesado/ It’s heavy
           F#
Não há paz / There is no peace

                 C#m
Tudo o que quer de mim / All you want from me

Expectativas / Expectations
      F#
Desleais

(Solo - C#m    B     F# - in Harper's time, repeating all from the beginning)

                       C#m
Mesmo que se segure
                     A
Quero que se cure
               F#
Dessa pessoa
          F#
Que o aconselha

                   C#m
Há um desencontro
                    A
Veja por esse ponto
                    F#
Há tantas pessoas especiais

             C#m                       A
Now even if you hold yourself
            F#
I want you to get cured
             F#
From this person
           C#m         A
Who poisoned you

                       F#
There is a disconnection
                                        C#m
See through this point of view
                A                       F#
There are so many special people in the world

                 C#m                      A                F#
...so many special people in the world in the world
