Intro: G
Verso 1:
G
I climb the marble
Em C D
stairs that lead away
G Em
Away from everything
D
I used to know
G Em
I try to keep my eyes
C D
down on the way
D
The way my mother
C D
told me not to go
G Em
Well all I ever wanted was
D
A hand to hold me down
G
To keep the sky from
Em D
swallowing me up
G Em
And all I ever needed
D
was someone to come around
C
And tell me that I've
C
suffered long enough
G D/F# Em
So take me away
Em C D
Find me a home
G D/F# Em
I'm on my way
Em D Em
I'm on my way
Verso 2:
G
I wonder when I'll
Em C D
see the stars again
G
I thought that they
Em D
had faded long ago
G
With every step I'm
Em C D
closer to the end
D
I'm climbing cause I
C D
don't know where to go
G Em
Well all I ever wanted was
D
A place to store my faith
G
I thought that I could
Em D
keep it locked away
G
It burns my eyes
Em
to look at him
D
And see the truth inside
D
And so I turn my
C
broken face away
(Refrão)
Ponte:
Em D
I always dreamed of
C D
Sundays together with you
Em D
Only your echoes can

break my heart
Em D
I need a hand to hold me
C D
to keep me on land
Em D
I fear I'm drifting
C
too far apart
