Intro: G--


Verse 1:
  G
I climb the marble 
 D
stairs that lead away
 Em
Away from everything 
          D
I used to know
  Em
I try to keep my eyes 
            D
down on the way
    D
The way my mother 
D
told me not to go
     Em
Well all I ever wanted was
  D
A hand to hold me down
   G
To keep the sky from 
D
  swallowing me up
    Em
And all I ever needed 
        D
was someone to come around
    C
And tell me that I've 
               C
suffered long enough
Chorus:
   Em
So take me  away
D
Find me a home
    Em
I'm on my   way
          Em
I'm on my way

Verse 2:
  G
I wonder when I'll 
D
see the stars again
  G
I thought that they 
    D
had faded long ago
     G
With every step I'm 
D
closer to the end
    D
I'm climbing cause I 
D
don't know where to go
     Em
Well all I ever wanted was
  D
A place to store my faith
  G
I thought that I could 
D
keep it locked away
   G
It burns my eyes 
   Em
to look at him
    D
And see the truth inside
    D
And so I turn my 
             C
broken face away


(Repeat Chorus)


Bridge:
D
  I always dreamed of
       D
Sundays together with you
D
  Only your echoes can
         C
break my heart
D
  I need a hand to hold me
D
  to keep me on land
D
  I fear I'm drifting
         C
too far apart


Verse 3:
     Em
Well all I ever wanted was
  D
A hand to hold me down
   G
To keep the sky from 
D
  swallowing me up
    Em
And all I ever needed 
        D
was someone to come around
    C
And tell me that I've 
               C--
suffered long enough


(Repeat Chorus)


Outro: Em- (Repeat till fade)
