♫ Verse 1:

E
At breaking of the light
B               E
I see it all so clear
   B                  A
My darkness will disappear
A                       E
As I push you away from here
        C#m            F#m
And you wait so patiently

To bring out the best in me

♫ Verse 2:

E
Shadows in the night
B               E
Danger is all I know
   B                A
So difficult to let go
A                      E
If I close my eyes and breathe
    C#m           F#m
Gets easier to believe
   B                           E     E
And you bring out live best in me


♫ Chorus:

A
I keep walking out
        B
And meet myself walking back in
   E                E
And times not on my side

You keep on believing
                          F#m  C#m  B
I will finally arrive and I will realize


♫ Verse 3:

E
I can no longer fight
    B             E
So tenderly as we go
B            E          A
No swimming against the tide
A                          E
Letting go of my worthless pride
           C#m           F#m
In your reflection I can see
    B                          E      E
That you bring out the best in me

E
So take another ride

We cast away all our fear
A                 E
And I want you to know

That you help set me free
