[VERSE 1]
       G                 D
I have heard some people say
          Em
“Hope has died
                 C
We have lost our way”
        G
And I admit
                 D
That things look bad
          Em
We’re all broken
                       C
Can’t do nothing about that
Em
But I’ve seen some evidence
     D
That goes against our common sense
  Em
I know that hope is still alive
    C
and well…

‘Cause I’ve seen –

[CHORUS]
G
Rainbows that come at the

end of the storm
    D
And enemies lay down their
           Em
weapons of war
     C
So I know there’s more (after bridge: for sure)

‘Cause I see
G
Orphans are finding their forever
homes
    D
And rich men are giving of
              Em
all that they own
        C
So I know (last time: yes, I know)
Em                            D
All these broken things shall pass
              G   D 
But Hope dies last

[VERSE 2]
       G         D
So I refuse to believe
                Em
That this all I’m
           C
Ever gonna be
      G
And I deny the lie

that’s in my mind
D
Whispering, proclaiming
       Em
I’ve already seen
                    C
the best days of my life
Em
I hear those voices
        D
Runnin’ through my head
They’re telling me
        Em
There’s nothing left,
                 C
No reason for my hope
But I’ve seen –

[CHORUS]
G
Rainbows that come at the

end of the storm
    D
And enemies lay down their
           Em
weapons of war
     C
So I know there’s more

‘Cause I see
G
Orphans are finding their forever
homes
    D
And rich men are giving of
              Em
all that they own
        C
So I know 
Em                            D
All these broken things shall pass
              G   D Em C
But Hope dies last

[BRIDGE]
          Em
In the end, We get home
              D
There will be no need for hope
             Em
‘Cause every longing
                     D
Will be satisfied in You
          Em
And every sad and broken thing
            C
Will come untrue
        D
Yeah I have seen the proof

[CHORUS]
G
Rainbows that come at the

end of the storm
    D
And enemies lay down their
           Em
weapons of war
     C
So I know for sure)

‘Cause I see
G
Orphans are finding their forever
homes
    D
And rich men are giving of
              Em
all that they own
        C
Yes, I know)
Em                            D
All these broken things shall pass
              G   D  Em C G
But Hope dies last
