Verse One:
There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
but you sing to me over and over and over again

Chorus:

      E      B         A   B
So I lay my head back down

       E        B        A           C#
And I lift my hands and pray, to be only yours

   A          C#            C   (let ring)
I pray to be only yours, I know now you're my only hope

Verse Two:

Sing to me of the song of the stars
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again

Chorus

Bridge: (the last four chords here are strummed, but I didn't put in all the strumming, 
play it and you'll know how)

I give you my apathy

G/A            C/A
I'm giving you all of me

G/A           C/A      Asus              F#
I want your symphony singing in all that I am

       A               B
At the top of my lungs

    A              B
I'm giving it back

      E
And I lay...(back to Chorus)
