G C D Em C G
[Verse 1]
G C G Am D Dsus
Something has been awaked; I feel it deep within my bones
G Em Bm7 D/F#
It’s building strength within me to take control, or so I’m told
[Chorus]
G C Em D/F# G
I won’t believe that you might take me; you’d like to think that you could
G C Em D/F# G
My gloves are off. I’ll come out swinging; don’t ever tell me the odds
Em D/F# G
I’d like to see your best shot
[Intro]
G C D Em C G
[Verse 2]
G C G D
This fire raging in me will burn down all that it may touch
G Em Bm D/F#
I’ll go out in a blaze of glory; you will fade silently to dust
[Chorus]
G C Em D/F# G
I won’t give you my permission; my body’s mine to command
G C Em D/F# G
I need to feel like I can fight this; I’d like to think that I can
Em D/F# G
I’d like to think that I can
[Bridge]
C D Am Em
Wait! Just wait! Why can’t we just live together?
C D Am Em
Why, oh why? There’s room for both of us to stay here
Am D/F# C Am G C
We could live like they do on TV, with tape across the floor
C D/F# C G
You take your things, I’ll keep mine in this imperfect harmony
[Solo]
G C D G C Bm7
G C D Em D G
[Verse 3]
G C G D
I’m still down here with my shadow, somehow both sodden and hollow
G Em Bm D/F#
I can’t remember what it felt like without the weight of this load
G C G D
I’d like to think I made a difference; was I good? Is anything unsaid?
G Em Bm D/F#
I wish that I could say that I have no regrets, but there is no time left
[Chorus]
G C Em D/F# G
Forget today and turn away from the light up ahead
Em D/F# G
Soon, my pain, it will end
G C Em D/F# G
From here on, I’m on my own so I wish you the best
Em D/F# G
Your pain, too, it will pass
G C Em D/F# G
The love you gave will never fade; I’d like to think that it can’t.
Em D/F# G
So I’ll leave you with that
G C Em D/F# G
They say that life will find a way; I’d like to think that it has
G C Em D/F# G
They say that life will find a way; I’d like to think that it has
Em D/F# G
I’d like to think that it has
Em D/F# G
Now I see that it has
Em
Now I see
[Outro]
