Tom: C#m

C#m                        G#m
   There are shadows in my dreams
C#m                            G#m
   Storms that steer me out of reach
A                          E     G#m
   And you just wait on my defeat

C#m                        G#m
   So I built an army underneath
C#m                           G#m
   And now they guard me while I sleep
A                                   E   G#m
   And this worn-out frame will carry me


[Pre-Chorus]
   A                     C#m
   Don’t go holding your breath
                              E
   You know that I’m not done yet
                               G#m
   There’s still a fight in me left
   A                     C#m
   Don’t go shouting out loud
                            E
   That you’re claiming the crown
                    G#m
   I’m down but not out
F#m                A                  C#m
   And the bittersweet of every new defeat
            E             F#m
   Is I’m stronger than before
                  A                  C#m
   Baby, on my knees, but I still believe
         E                 G#m
   These broken wings will soar


[Chorus]
A              B
Untie my silhouette 
                 C#m       E      A
It’s all that is left of a broken heart
A                 B                      C#m
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
        E      A
Through oceans dark


[Verse 2]
C#m                       G#m
   In the dust I wrote my name
C#m                           G#m
   And from the ruins, hopes were raised
A                               E           G#m
   Cause all that’s lost can be replaced in time


[Pre-Chorus]
   A                     C#m
   Don’t go holding your breath
                              E
   You know that I’m not done yet
                               G#m
   There’s still a fight in me left
   A                     C#m
   Don’t go shouting out loud
                            E
   That you’re claiming the crown
                    G#m
   I’m down but not out
F#m                A                  C#m
   And the bittersweet of every new defeat
            E             F#m
   Is I’m stronger than before
                  A                  C#m
   Baby, on my knees, but I still believe
         E                 G#m
   These broken wings will soar


[Chorus]
A              B
Untie my silhouette
                 C#m       E      A
It’s all that is left of a broken heart
A                 B                      C#m
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
        E      A
Through oceans dark


[Bridge]
A               B
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh, oh-oh oh-oh-oh
C#m  E            A
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh
A               B
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh, oh-oh oh-oh-oh
C#m  E            A   N.C.
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh


[Chorus]
A              B
Untie my silhouette
                 C#m       E      A
It’s all that is left of a broken heart
A                 B                      C#m
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
        E      A
Through oceans dark
