Intro: (x2)
G, D, G, A augmentedA

Verse:
  B minorBm           G+G
So go ahead and lie to yourself
              A augmentedA
And pretend that you're a ray of light
        A augmentedA      B minorBm
When you're a broken candle
               G+G
You're keeping time with yourself
              A augmentedA        A augmentedA
When it'd all start moving way too fast for you to handle

Chorus:
B minorBm
Short on breath
G+G
Heavy on time
   A augmentedA
You lost the words
     B minorBm     A augmentedA
But you found the rhyme
   G+G        A augmentedA
It's all just poetry now
   A augmentedA
The walls are singing
B minorBm  G+G   A augmentedA
Hallelujah amen
   A augmentedA
The walls are singing
B minorBm  G+G   A augmentedA  A augmentedA
Hallelujah amen

Verse:
B minorBm          G+G
It's so dark in the room
           A augmentedA
And the ceilings are high
N.C.
You know the feeling
     A augmentedA        B minorBm
You've been here before
          G+G
It's a broken old pew
        A augmentedA
It's a echoing cry
    A augmentedA
Don't sell yourself

Chorus:
B minorBm
Short on breath
G+G
Heavy on time
   A augmentedA
You lost the words
     B minorBm     A augmentedA

It's all just poetry now
   A augmentedA
The walls are singing
B minorBm  G+G   A augmentedA
Hallelujah amen

Verse:
  B minorBm              G+G
See we don't really care who you are
N.C.
We've kinda got this
A augmentedA             A augmentedA
Non-exclusive policy on determining
      B minorBm
Exactly who we open up to
   G+G
And let into our families
   A augmentedA             A augmentedA
Then who becomes a part of our united mass of harmony
   B minorBm
Now that's kinda become
   G+G
The thesis to this song
      A augmentedA
Through suffering

Acceptance
A augmentedA
Grief

Verse:
And strife
    B minorBm
There's no way that your puzzle piece
G+G
Fits into our puzzle wrong
    A augmentedA
Cause everyone is welcome
     A augmentedA
On this stage that we call life
   B minorBm              G+G
And we don't really care who you are
       A augmentedA
Everyone is capable of looking up
   A augmentedA
And wishing on a star
  B minorBm
So catch it so contagious
    G+G
This day dreamers disease
   A augmentedA
And hope can be your sword
      A augmentedA
Slaying darkness with belief
   B minorBm              G+G
And we don't really care who you are
          A augmentedA
Regardless of how lost you are returning from
 A augmentedA
Regardless of how far
  B minorBm
So bring me all the worst
     G+G
Of your broken bruised insane
    A augmentedA
Cause that's the thing with music
     A augmentedA
When it hits you fill no pain
  B minorBm
No matter what you did
  G+G
I promise we forgave it
        A augmentedA
When all that's left is your voice
       A augmentedA
You got no choice but to raise it
     B minorBm
All you broken hearts
      G+G
All you dejected dreams
       A augmentedA
Just let yourself be free
        A augmentedA
Because even broken wings
N.C.
Can fly away

Solo: (x2)
Bm, G, A, A augmentedA

Verse:
    B minorBm      G+G
Oh in time you will find
    A augmentedA
That life's a painting
   A augmentedA
And you're the artist
   B minorBm    G+G
Just open your eyes
   A augmentedA
It's never too late
   A augmentedA
To clear your canvass
  B minorBm
So paint me jealous
 G+G
Paint me rage
   A augmentedA
For gods sake
     B minorBm  A augmentedA
Paint me anything
  G+G
Just paint
      A augmentedA
Your brush awaits

   A augmentedA
The walls sing you to sleep

   A augmentedA
One secret meant to
B minorBm    G+G   A augmentedA
Keep you safe tonight
  A augmentedA        B minorBm
I swear that everything
   G+G  A augmentedA
