Fmaj7 Amaj7sus2
Fmaj7 Amaj7sus2 Cmaj7 Amaj7sus2

♫ Verse 1:
Fmaj7              Amaj7sus2 Cmaj7
   Baby, I've been baptized
Cmaj7          Amaj7sus2 Fmaj7
Been bathing in the moonlight
  Fmaj7         Amaj7sus2 Cmaj7
I surrender, so take your time
Amaj7sus2               Fmaj7
I'm summoning my divine
Fmaj7           Amaj7sus2    Cmaj7
Tried it all to numb the pain
Amaj7sus2          Fmaj7
But nobody ever stayed
Fmaj7             Amaj7sus2   Cmaj7
Could be too much to even     take
N.C.
Look what you find when there's nothing left to lose

♫ Pre-Chorus: 
Fmaj7        C                         G#m
  I kept on running, just gasping for breath
G#m        C#m                         Fmaj7
Nothing to trust in 'cause nothing was left
Fmaj7            C                        G#m
I pray when I'm desperate, I'm down on my knees
      C#m
Oh, my God

♫ Chorus: 
          Fmaj7 C         G#m     C
I'm the cathedral finally coming home
            Fmaj7 C             G#m                            C#m
Life was so le-thal but I'm the savior, I'm the altar, I'm the Holy Ghost
Fmaj7                C
Pain was my ritual; fear, my religion
G#m               C#m
I was the one who needed forgiving
Fmaj7  C           G#m Fmaj7
Oh
I'm the cathedral


♫ Verse 2:
Fmaj7     Amaj7sus2 Cmaj7
Let it in, sun      light
Cmaj7         Amaj7sus2 Fmaj7
It feels good, that's alright
Fmaj7                  Amaj7sus2  Cmaj7
Touch my skin, love my pain      away
N.C.
And, God, forgive all my mistakes

♫ Pre-Chorus: 
Fmaj7    C                   G#m
Maybe redemption lies in the dark
G#m      C#m                        Fmaj7
My happy ending's through my broken heart
Fmaj7      C                      G#m
Hope is a madman that hides in my mind
      C#m
Oh, my God

♫ Chorus: 
          Fmaj7 C         G#m     C
I'm the cathedral finally coming home
            Fmaj7 C             G#m                            C#m
Life was so le-thal but I'm the savior, I'm the altar, I'm the Holy Ghost
Fmaj7                C
Pain was my ritual; fear, my religion
G#m               C#m
I was the one who needed forgiving
Fmaj7  C           G#m Fmaj7
Oh
I'm the cathedral

♫ Bridge: 
Fmaj7            C
Who I once was, she seems so far
G#m                   C#m
I've had to sacrifice her from the start
Fmaj7           C
I'm born again with every scar
G#m                       C#m
I can't control what's written in the stars
Fmaj7             C
Been on my knees begging for God
G#m                       C#m
She's there inside of me, she was just lost
Fmaj7         C
Oh, my mind, look at what it caused
G#m                 C#m            Fmaj7
Darkness leads into light all along


♫ Chorus: 
          Fmaj7 C         G#m     C
I'm the cathedral finally coming home
            Fmaj7 C             G#m                            C#m
Oh God, it feels good, I'm the savior, I'm the altar, I'm the Holy Ghost
Fmaj7                C
 Every minute, it is a new beginning
G#m                    C#m             Fmaj7
I died in Hell and I'm finally living again
C          G#m Fmaj7
 In the cathedral

♫ Outro:

I'm the cathe-----dral
