Текст песни Josh Groban - Weeping

Weeping
Josh Groban
This song is best known nowadays for Josh Groban's cover but it was written by Dan Heymann.
I am a total beginner so this is most likely not in the original key... but I 
couldn't find any other version online so here you go.  You can use your own 
judgment and style for the timing of the  chord as the pickup to the next 
measure, or even go straight from A to  if you like, especially right before the 
last line (the repeat).  I've tried to space out the chorus to show how the chords 
fall in the rests between lyrics.

I knew a man who lived in fear

It was huge, it was angry, it was drawing near

Behind his house a secret place

Was the shadow of the demon he could never face.

Bridge:
He built a wall of steel and flame

And men with guns to keep it tame

Then standing back he made it plain

That the nightmare would never ever rise again

But the fear and the fire and the guns remain.

   It doesn't matter now,   it's over anyhow

   He tells the world that it's sleeping

   But as the night came round,   I heard its lonely sound

   It wasn't roaring, it was    weeping

   It wasn't roaring, it was    weeping.

And then one day the neighbours came
They were curious to know about the smoke and flame
They stood around outside the wall
But of course there was nothing to be heard at all

Bridge:
"My friends," he said, "We've reached our goal
The threat is under firm control
As long as peace and order reign
I'll be damned if I can see a reason to explain
Why the fear and the fire and the guns remain."

The chords for the ad lib break before the final ending are:
