Verse 1:
DmDm             G+G
Down where the valleys are low
          C majorC   FF C majorC
There's a refuge so high
  DmDm              G+G
And down where the coldest winds blow
            C majorC   FF C majorC
There the warmest winds hide
  DmDm          G+G
And deep in the forest of woe
           C majorC   FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
Sweet deliverance is nigh
  Dm7Dm7             A#A#
And deep in the heart there's a rose
           A augmentedA
That a glimmer keeps guidin'

Pre-Chorus:
     D5/A   G+G        C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9
'Til the heavens' song begins the holy files a-burnin'

And the harmony is set to weave a silver sermon
    D5/A    G+G        C majorC       Cadd9Cadd9
And my heart's aflame until the blessed rhythm's churnin'

Push me on     from the danger that's pullin' me
  DmDm  C majorC C/BC/B G+G
And holds me so strong
    Dm7Dm7 C majorC FF    G+G     C majorC
Send a song   on the wind to deliver me
Am7Am7     D7D7      G+G
Take me and rise when the fire is on
     Dm7Dm7 C majorC FF     G+G     C majorC
Take the reins   and the loneliness fillin' me
  A minorAm      D MajorD      G+G       C majorC C/BC/B
And make my fear fuel and the fuel hi-octane

     Dm7Dm7 C majorC FF       G+G     C majorC
Lead the way   through the glories deceivin' me
  DmDm    C majorC  C/BC/B G+G
And reverie's sway
      Dm7Dm7 C majorC FF     G+G      C majorC      C/BC/B
Through the day   when the hereafter's holdin' me

Lend me a hand and I won't delay
    Dm7Dm7 C majorC FF      G+G      C majorC    C/BC/B
Send a ray   through the seven veiled mysteries
  Am7Am7        D7D7       G+G       FF G+G
And break their sweet spell and their links of chain
