Intro:
C


Verse 1:
F                            C
There is no mountain you can climb
G    F             C
High enough to see past
    Dm                      G
The fact you climbed it all alone
F                            C
There is no city filled with lights
G              F   C
So bright that you forget
Dm                   G
You have never had a home

Chorus:
F          G             C                F
I gave the world my best, brought back to you the rest
F      G                    C
And in return, you loved me more
Dm     G        C          F
How do I return all that I took from you
                             G
And all the life you gave to me?
         F             C
When you learn you can earn
    Dm                            G
The love you're waiting for, it's already yours


Verse 2:
F                            C
There is no reason we should doubt
G          F                C
The broken hearts will rise again
Dm                             G
The mending touch of something grand
F                    G
Isn't that what it's about?
G             F                    C
The blind are charging through the night
Dm                   G
Guided by the steady hand


Chorus:
F          G             C                F
I gave the world my best, brought back to you the rest
F      G                    C
And in return, you loved me more
Dm     G        C          F
How do I return all that I took from you
                             G
And all the life you gave to me?
         F             C
When you learn you can earn
    Dm                            G7
The love you're waiting for, it's already yours
