Verse 1:
When I was lost
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
You stood there silent
E MajorE G# minorG#m A augmentedA BB
And kept the light on inside me
E MajorE G# minorG#m
And when I broke down
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
And all the world turned to gray

You told me time would be gentle

D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE BB
And nobody knows your name
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE BB

Or some shining lighthouse that guided my way
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
But nobody knows your name

E MajorE G# minorG#m
You held me up
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
When I was drowning
G# minorG#m A augmentedA BB
And wrapped me in your spare blankets
E MajorE G# minorG#m
And you held my head
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
While I lay broken
G# minorG#m A augmentedA BB
And told me I would sleep soundly
And that life goes on

And nobody knows your name

But nobody knows …

Now that I'm gone
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
And standing on my own two feet
G# minorG#m A augmentedA BB
I still remember you fondly
