verse:
C majorC
There's a place

A augmentedA place that I go
    A minorAm          G+G
Where I curl in a ball on the floor
        C majorC
And no one can know

C majorC
And the fear

Wells up inside
     A minorAm
I'm just falling again
     G+G
Feel I'm falling again

  FF C majorC DmDm     C majorC
And y-o-u make me brave
   FF      C majorC
Then you make me brave

verse:
C majorC
When the dark

And all of the doubt
A minorAm
Crowds in around me
  G+G      C majorC
And blocks the world out

C majorC
And then I

I see you smile
    A minorAm
And I'm flying again
     G+G
Yes, I'm flying again

chorus:
    FF C majorC DmDm    C majorC
'Cause y-o-u make me brave
   FF      C majorC
Yes, you make me brave

FF C majorC

verse:
C majorC
What's to come?

No one can know
   A minorAm         G+G
But I fear for the future
      C majorC
What it may hold

C majorC
Take my hand

Take it today
     A minorAm
Let's not live in the past
     G+G
Let's not hide in the past

Live for today

Live for today
