Chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
FF G minorGm
There was a darkness that soothed me
Bb majorBb FF
and raised me up to dream
FF G minorGm
In an abyss, those nightmares
Bb majorBb FF
are not what they seem
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
They whispered of a world they'd known
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
where every child was their own
G minorGm
all the colours of an oil spill
Bb majorBb FF
when moonlight hits the wave, I’ll save you
FF
All
Bb majorBb
you’ve seen all the things that I’ve seen,
FF
you’ve been all the places I’ve been my friend
Bb majorBb
you know all the things that I know,
FF
well maybe not all but most so but who cares
FF
who’s better or worse than anyone
Bb majorBb
Ive made mistakes along the way but
FF
mostly things just stay the same I don’t agree
Bb majorBb FF
the universe is filled with so moray and new exciting things to see
FF
for you and me
Chorus 1:
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
You don’t need saving you can save yourself
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
You’re not so special from the inside out
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
just wait a second look at what we’ve done
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
I bet if the nightmares could see me now they’d say well done
FF G minorGm
well done, well done
Bb majorBb
well done daughter
FF
daughter well done
Verse 2:
FF G minorGm
There was a darkness that knew me
Bb majorBb FF
and raised me wild and strong
FF G minorGm
so hated and so feared was she
Bb majorBb FF
though fearful most of all
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
she whispered of a hunger deep
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
and as old as the bones beneath her meat
G minorGm
all strange, serenades,
Bb majorBb FF
that never sleeps yet never wakes I'll break your
FF
Fall
Bb majorBb
You’ve done everything that you could
FF
You feel like there's something else you're supposed to do
Bb majorBb
who crossed that road, who burned that bridge,
FF
who fought that current and swam with the fish, was it you?
Bb majorBb FF
I've lost a friend, I've gained a friend, what's a friend mean but a means to an end? I tried my best with
Bb majorBb FF
everyone I've ever loved I'll outlive unless I can find where life inside me rests, it is my test
Chorus 2:
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
you don’t need saving anymore anymore
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
but I'm still waiting from the not so distant shore
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
just take a second look at what you've started
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
I'm sorry that I couldn’t save you from darkness inside your heart
FF Bb majorBb
your heart, your heart
G minorGm Bb majorBb FF
