Courage

Tom: A

A E D A
A E A

[Verse 1]
A             E             D           A
Oh I've been searching for peace in my mind
A                E          D                A
Thought I could find it by walking straight lines
A               E             D           A
Time takes his prisoners and slowly slips by
A             E             A
When did the stakes get so high?

[Chorus]
                   A D A Bm
I'm callin out to courage
D               E                A
You don't understand my point of view
     A D A Bm
But courage
D                  E                     A
You don't know how bad I wanna hear from you

(the last A of the chorus is the lead in to the instrumental)

[Verse 2]
      A           E              D            A
I'll show you my cards but I’ll keep that one in
   A          E           D           A
So if it all crumbles my image still stands
   A            E            D          A
I hope one day I'll be free from these demands
     A            E      A
But I'm just not sure I can
    A            E      A
No I'm just not sure I can

[Chorus]
                      A D A Bm
So I'm callin out to courage
D              E                  A
You don't understand my point of view
     A D A Bm
But courage
D                   E                     A
You don't know how bad I wanna hear from you

[Verse 3]
      A               E         D             A
I've heard that it's better to fail then not try
     A             E             A
But when did that stakes get so high?

[Chorus 2]
                   A D A Bm
I'm callin out to courage
D               E                 A
You don't understand my point of view
     A D A Bm
But courage
D                   E                    A
You don't know how bad I wanna hear from you
                      A D A Bm
Oh I'm callin out to courage
    D              E                 A
Oh you don't understand my point of view
     A D A Bm
But courage
D                   E                     A
You don't know how bad I wanna hear from you
D                            E                 F#m
And I'm scared to death the things you make me do
D                         E
Still you don't know how bad
                   A
I wanna hear from you
