VERSE 1:

 E minorEm           D MajorD             C majorC
The pain that grips you, the fear that binds you

 D MajorD
Releases life in me


 E minorEm      D MajorD           C majorC
In our mutual shame we hide our eyes


            D MajorD                  E minorEm
To blind them from the truth that finds a way for who we are


          D MajorD                C majorC
Please don't be afraid when the darkness fades away


             D MajorD             E minorEm
The dawn will break the silence screaming at our hearts


            D MajorD             C majorC
My love for you still grows and this I do for you


         D MajorD
Before I try to fight the truth my final time


PRECHORUS:

Em, D, C, D MajorD

CHORUS:

 C majorC          D MajorD              E minorEm     D MajorD
Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away


 C majorC          D MajorD               E minorEm    D MajorD
Can't cry it all away, can't scratch it all away


VERSE 2:

 E minorEm       D MajorD           C majorC
Lying beside you listening to you breathe


             D MajorD              E minorEm
The light that flows inside of you burns inside of me


          D MajorD           C majorC
Hold and speak to me of love without a sound


         D MajorD                   E minorEm
Tell me you will live through this and I will die for you


        D MajorD            C majorC
Cast me not away, say you'll be with me


       D MajorD            E minorEm
For I know I cannot bear it all alone


PRECHORUS:

Em, D, C, D MajorD

CHORUS:
 C majorC           D MajorD             E minorEm     D MajorD
Can't fight it all away, can't hope it all away


 C majorC            D MajorD             E minorEm    D MajorD
Can't scream it all away, it just won't fade away


 E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC  D MajorD
, , , (downward strokes)


 E minorEm      D MajorD     C majorC    D MajorD
I tried so hard


Em, D, C, D MajorD
