City And Colour


Tom: Am

Am 
This hallway's dark and empty  
                    F9/G              F5
Just miles and miles of endless road 
Am 
I've got a sickness pounding in my head 
              F9/G             F5
I'm at the mercy of the ghosts  

Am 
But what it would take to live  
                    F9/G        F5 
As if I would not another day 
Am 
To live without despair  
                    F9/G            F5 
And to be without another desdain 

[Refrão]

                F9/G   G 
How can I instill such hope 
              Am                F5  
But be left with none of my own? 
                 F9/G
What if I could sing  
          G 
Just one song 
              Am              F5    
And it might save somebody's life 

Am 
I sought after  
      F9/G           F5  
After reasons to stay  
Am 
I was lost  
      F9/G  F5  
I was lost  

Am 
Then the sky turned black 
         F9/G            F5  
And the rains poured down 
Am 
I was waiting  
               F9/G  F5  
Waiting to be found  

Oh, no  

[Refrão]

          F9/G         G 
How can I instill such hope 
         Am                F5  
But be left with none of my own? 
                F9/G 
What if I could sing  
          G 
Just one song 
              Am              F5  
And it might save somebody's life 
  
Am                 
Then I would sing  
                F5    
All that I can sing  
              F9/G         
Because that is when  
G                                 F5  
When I feel that I'm not counting time  

Am 
Oh, and I sing  
               F5  
All that I can sing  
       F9/G 
Maybe just for the moment  
G                     F5   
Things would seem all right  

F9/G            G 
Oh, and I sing  
Am            F5  
Oh, and I sing  
F9/G           G 
Oh, and I sing  
Am            F5  
Oh, and I sing
