[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][C][G][Am][C][D][Em][C][Dsus4][G]

[Verse 1]
When holding your breath [D]is
safer than breath[Em]ing
When letting [C]go [G]is braver than [Am]keeping
When [C]innocent [D]words turn [Em]to lies
And you [C]can't hide [Dsus4]by closing
your [G]eyes

[Verse 2]
[G]When pain is [D]all that they [Em]of fer
[C]Like a kiss from [G]the lips of [Am]monster
You know the [C]famine so [D]well,
but never [Em]met the feast
And [C]home is the belly of the [D]beast

[Verse 3]
[C]The ocean is wild and [Em]over your head
And the [C]boat be[Em]neath
[C]you is sink[Am]ing
Don't [C]need room for your [D]bags
Hope [Em]is all that you have
So say the [Am]Lord's prayer twice,
hold your [C]ba [Am]bies tight
Surely [D]someone [F#dim]will reach [D]out a hand
And [C]show you a [Dsus4]safe place to land[G]

[Verse 4]
Oh, [G]imagine [D]yourself [Em]in a building
Up in [C]flames being [G]told to stand [Am]still
[C]The window's wide [D]open
This [Em]is leap is on faith
You [C]don't know who will catch you
Maybe [D]somebody will

[Verse 5]
The [C]ocean is wild and [Em]over your head
And the [C]boat be[Bm]neath
[C]you is sink[Am]ing
Don't [C]need room for your [Dsus4]bag s[D]
Hope [Em]is all that you have
So say the [Am]Lord's prayer twice,
hold [C]your babies tight
[Am]Surely [D]someone will reach out a hand
And [C]show you a [D]safe place [G]to land

[Verse 6]
Be [Em]the hand of a hopeful stranger
A little [G]scared but
you're strong enough
Be the [C]light in the dark
of this [Em]danger[G][C]
'Til the [G]sun [Bm]comes [D]up[Bm]
[Em]Be the

[Verse 7]
hand of a hopeful stranger
A little [G]scared but you're strong enough
Oh, be the [C]light in the dark
of this [G]danger
[C]'Til the [G]sun [D]comes [Bm]up

[Verse 8]
Be the [Em]hand of a hope[F#sus4]ful strange[Em]r
A little [G]scared but you're strong enough
[Am]Be t[Bm]he li[C]ght in the dark
of this danger
'Til the [G]sun [D]comes [Bm]up

[Verse 9]
'Til the [Em]sun comes up, oh
'Til the [G]sun comes up, 'til the sun
'Til the [C]sun comes up
'Til the [G]sun, 'til [Bm]the sun
[G]Comes up
