Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
BB            C# minorC#m
I've been looking for salvation
E MajorE          BB    F#F#
I've been searching low and high
BB         C# minorC#m
I'm tired of being patient;
E MajorE             BB    F#F#
All this waiting's been a waste of time

Verse 2:
BB             C# minorC#m
And it's no wonder how we got here;
E MajorE         BB     F#F#
In many ways, I wrote this script
BB          C# minorC#m
By loading all our treasures
E MajorE          BB    F#F#
Into the belly of a sinking ship

Chorus:
E MajorE              F#F#     BB
I tried to hold you but my hands were cold;
E MajorE              F#F#    BB
I meant to catch you but I moved too slow
E MajorE       F#F#         BB
I hate to leave, but it's time to go

Verse 3:
BB            C# minorC#m
Well, our love has left us tired;
E MajorE            BB    F#F#
This love has beat us black and blue
BB             C# minorC#m
It's the child that's still in me
E MajorE         BB       F#F#
That wants even though we're through

Chorus:
E MajorE            F#F#    BB
I wanna hold you but my hands are cold;
E MajorE              F#F#     BB
I meant to catch you but I moved too slow
E MajorE           F#F#        BB
I hate to leave but I know it's time to go

Verse 4:
BB              C# minorC#m
And I've been looking for salvation
E MajorE          BB    F#F#
I've been searching low and high
BB          C# minorC#m
I forgot that it was waiting
E MajorE         BB    F#F#
In your smile and in your eyes

Bridge:
E MajorE                F#F#   BB
Down the hills and through the winding roads
E MajorE             F#F#    BB
You hold my mind and I've lost control
E MajorE            F#F#  BB
I never meant to fully disappear
E MajorE               F#F#   BB
Now that you're gone, it has become clear
E MajorE             F#F#     BB
I hope to see you before hell gets cold
E MajorE              F#F#        BB
