E B E
(Breathe)I wish I could cross my arms, and cross your mind
B F# E
Cause I believe you'd unfold your paper heart and wear it on your sleeve
B E
All my life I wish I broke mirrors, instead of promises
B F#
Cause all I see, is a shattered conscience staring right back at me
E B E
I wish I had covered all my tracks completely cause I'm so afraid
B F#
Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel or just the train?
E B
Lift your arms only heaven knows, where the danger grows
E B F#
And it's safe to say there's a bright light up ahead and help is on the way
E B Abm F#
(Help is on the way, Help is on the way, Help is on the way...)
Help is on the way
E B F#
I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity
E B F#
Cause it came down like a tidal wave, and sorrow swept over me
E, B, F#, E, B, F#
E B E
Depression, please cut to the chase and cut a long story short
B F#
Oh please be done. How much longer can this drama afford to run?
E B E
Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties and breaks whatever doesn't bend
B F#
But sadly then, all my heavy hopes just pull me back down again
E B Abm F# E
(Back down again, back down again, back down again, back down again, back
B Abm F#
down again, back down again, back down again.)
E B F#
I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity
E B F#
Cause it came down like a tidal wave, and sorrow swept over me
E B F#
When I was given grace and love, I was blind but now I can see
E B F#
Cause I found a new hope from above, and courage swept over me
B, E, F#, B, E, F#
B E F#
It hurts just to wake up, whenever you're wearing thin
B E F#
Alone on the outside, so tired of looking in
B E F#
The end is uncertain and I've never been so afraid
B
But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope
E F# B..... (fade out.)
And that makes me feel brave...
