[Verse I]
A minorAm G+G
And the air was full
FF Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
Of various storms and saints
A minorAm
Praying in the street
DmDm E minorEm
As the banks began to break
A minorAm
And I'm in the throes of it
DmDm E minorEm
Somewhere in the belly of the beast
A minorAm
But you took your toll on me
DmDm E minorEm
So I gave myself over willingly
A minorAm
Oh, you got a hold on me
DmDm E minorEm
I don't know how I don't just stand outside and scream
DmDm E minorEm
I am teaching myself how to be free
[Verse II]
A minorAm
The monument of a memory
You tear it down in your head
DmDm
Don't make the mountain your enemy
E minorEm
Get out, get up there instead
A minorAm
You saw the stars out in front of you
Too tempting not to touch
DmDm
But even though it shocked you
E minorEm
Something's electric in your blood
[Pre-Chorus]
DmDm C majorC
And people just untie themselves
A minorAm G+G DmDm
Uncurling lifelines
A minorAm G+G
If you could just forgive yourself
[Chorus]
A minorAm
But still you stumble, feet give way
DmDm E minorEm
Outside the world seems a violent place
A minorAm
But you had to have him, and so you did
DmDm E minorEm
Some things you let go in order to live
A minorAm
While all around you the buildings sway
DmDm E minorEm
You sing it out loud, who made us this way
A minorAm
I know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay
DmDm E minorEm
Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe
FF E minorEm A minorAm
Hold on to your heart, don't give it away
[Verse III]
A minorAm
You'll find a rooftop to sing from
Or find a hallway to dance
DmDm E minorEm
You don't need no edge to cling from
DmDm E minorEm
Your heart is there, it's in your hands
A minorAm
I know it seems like forever
I know it seems like an age
DmDm E minorEm
But one day this will be over
DmDm E minorEm
I swear it's not so far away
[Pre-Chorus]
DmDm C majorC
And people just untie themselves
A minorAm G+G DmDm
Uncurling lifelines
A minorAm G+G
If you could just forgive yourself
[Chorus]
A minorAm
But still you stumble, feet give way
DmDm E minorEm
Outside the world seems a violent place
A minorAm
But you had to have him, and so you did
DmDm E minorEm
Some things you let go in order to live
A minorAm
While all around you the buildings sway
DmDm E minorEm
You sing it out loud, who made us this way
A minorAm
I know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay
DmDm E minorEm
Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe
FF E minorEm A minorAm
