Verse 1:
Am                        C
I see the golden years behind us
                             G
I'm getting scared to move along
                       F
My inspiration has subsided
                   G         Am
Without a muse to keep me strong
                           C
I can't remember our last victory
                             G
Was it the past, or just a dream?
                                F
The world we grew to love has crumbled
                             Am
With my own efforts losing steam

Chorus:
                              C
I think I need your hands to lift me
                               G
I think I need your light to shine
                              F
There lies a trail of fire behind us
                         Am
From a warstruck, weary time
                               C
I'm going to need a guide to show me
                                   G
To walk me through the streets of gold
                               F
When death will meet us at the end
                            Am
Of our own lost and broken road

Verse 2:
Am                            C
I've made mistakes that devastated
                          G
Too many battles lost to tell
                                 F
If I could turn back to time to find you
                            Am
I'd find our confidence as well
                                  C
So please forgive the tears and whispers
                       G
If you are only in my head
                                  F
Sometimes I want to think you're listening
                           Am
When every other voice is dead


Chorus:
                              C
I think I need your hands to lift me
                               G
I think I need your light to shine
                              F
There lies a trail of fire behind us
                         Am
From a warstruck, weary time
                               C
I'm going to need a guide to show me
                                   G
To walk me through the streets of gold
                               F
When death will meet us at the end
                            Am
Of our own lost and broken road

Verse 3:
Am                        F
The last survivor of the fall
                          Am
Without a will to live at all

The sun is setting as
   C                        Am
No one remains my weakened call
           (D7)            F
I've come a thousand miles alone
                                Am
Passed every kingdom's empty throne

And I can't shake the feeling
 C                                   Am
You'll arrange the stars to lead me home

C G C F
Am C G F

Chorus:
Am                            C
I think I need your hands to lift me
                               G
I think I need your light to shine
                              F
There lies a trail of fire behind us
                         Am
From a warstruck, weary time
                               C
I'm going to need a guide to show me
                                   G
To walk me through the streets of gold
                               F
When death will meet us at the end
                            Am
Of our own lost and broken road
