Tom: G
G/B C Am Em D
[Verse 1]
G Am C
It's harder to see through the eyes of a stranger
G Am C
It's easier to love when the world doesn't hate you
G Am C
When you try to sing out but nobody hears a word
G Am C
It's safer to swim when the tide's not against you
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Yeah-yeah (You've been here before)
Am
I know you've been here before
(Never letting go)
Em
And giving up is letting go
(Never fight alone)
D
But you don't have to fight alone
[Chorus]
G Am
I'll shed a tear for you
C
Open your eyes, I'm by your side
G Am
I'm never leaving you
C
Darkness or light, I'll stay through the night
D/F# G Am
I'm walking in your shoes
C
So you know that it's the truth
G Am
When nobody's here for you
C
Let me make it clear
G
That I shed a, I shed a tear
Am
(Shed a tear, shed a tear, shed a tear)
C
Ooh-hoo
(Shed a tear, shed a tear)
[Verse 2]
G Am C
And I'll feel your pain when I know you're in trouble
G Am C
And I'll take the blame for your hurt and your struggle
G Am C
And when you try to speak out but nobody hears a word
G Am C
I'll be your voice, lay your head on my shoulder
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Oh (You've been here before)
Am
I know you've been here before
(Never letting go)
Em
And nothing is impossible
(Never fight alone)
D
You don't have to fight alone
[Chorus]
G Am
I'll shed a tear for you
C
Open your eyes, I'm by your side
G Am
I'm never leaving you
C
Darkness or light, stay through the night
D/F# G Am
I'm walking in your shoes
C
So you know that it's the truth
G Am
When nobody's here for you
C
Let me make it clear
[Post-Chorus]
G
That I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear
(Shed a tear, shed a tear, shed a tear)
Am C
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear (shed a tear)
G
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear (shed a tear)
(Shed a tear, shed a tear, shed a tear)
Am C
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear (shed a tear, whoah-oh)
[Bridge]
C Bm D G
And when you're livin' in your darkest hour (whoah)
C G/B D
And when you're gettin' closer to the edge
[Chorus]
G Am
I'll shed a tear for you
C
Open your eyes, I'm by your side
G Am
I'm never leavin' you
C
Darkness or light, stay through the night
D/F# G Am
I'm walkin' in your shoes
C
So you know that it's the truth
G Am
When nobody's here for you
C
Let me make it clear
[Outro]
G
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear
(Shed a tear, shed a tear, shed a tear)
Am C
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear (shed a tear)
G
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear (shed a tear)
(Shed a tear, shed a tear, shed a tear)
C
I'll shed a, I'll shed a tear (shed a tear)
G
I'll shed a, I'll hed a tear (shed a tear)
