Hope in the Air Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]There is a man that I know
For seventeen [Bsus4]years, he[B] never sp[Em]oke
[C]Guess he had nothing to [Em]say
He opened his [B]mouth[F#m]
[B]on [Am]Judge[Em]ment Day

[Verse 2]
I [Em]listened with all [Bsus4]of my mig[Em]ht
But was scared by [Bsus4]the look in his [Em]eyes
Like [C]he'd already lost the [Em]fight
And there was no [F#m]hope ever i[Em]n sight

[Verse 3]
[Em]
No [C]hope in the air
[Em]No hope in the water
Not even for [Bsus4]me
[F#m]Your last [B]serving [Em]daughter

[Verse 4]
[D]Why fear dea[Bm]th,
[Em]be scared of living
[Am]Our hearts are small and
[Em]ever thinning
[Am]There is no hope [Em]ever of winning
Oh, [Am]why fear d[B]eath,
[Am]be scared [Em]of living

[Verse 5]
[Em]
I have [F#m]seen m[Em]en provoked
And I have seen lives revoked
And I [C]looked at my life and I [Em]choked
From there no more [Am]ever [Em]I spoke

[Verse 6]
[Em]
I can't give up that quick
My life is a candle and a wick
[C]You can put it out,
but you can[Em]'t break it down

[Verse 7]
In the end we are waiting to be lit
[Em]
There's [C]hope in the air
There's [Em]hope in the water
But sadly not [Bsus4]me[B]
[Em]Your last [Am]serving [Em]daughter

[Verse 8]
[Em]A fr[D]iend is a friend for[Em]ever
And a [C]good one will never leave,
[Em]nev er
But you've never been [F#m]south [Em]of what
blows off your mouth
You will never understand [A]that, ever
[Em]

[Verse 9]
You speak minds [F#m]handed down to [Em]you
By the lies, handed down
[Bsus4]by your t[Em]ruth
And your [C]angels will dance at [Em]your will
Will mask [F#m]your scrambling [Em]youth

[Verse 10]
I [Em]forgave you your [F#dim]short
[F#m]coming[Em]s
And ignored your [F#m]child ish [Em]behavior
Laid [C]a kiss on your head
And be[Em]fore I left said,
"Stay away [F#m]from fleeti[Em]ng favor"

[Verse 11]
[Em]
There's [C]hope in the air
There's [Em]hope in the water
But sadly not me
[Am]Your last serv[Em]ing daughter

[Interlude 1]
[Em]

[Verse 12]
Pick up your [F#m]rope, [A]Lord, sling it to [Em]me
If we are [F#m]to battle, [Em]I must not be weak
And give me [C]your strength, world,
[Em]and your food, and your water
Oh, I am your savior,
your last [Em]serving daughter

[Verse 13]
There's [C]hope in the air
There's [Em]hope in the water
But sadly not me
Your last [Em]serving daughter

[Verse 14]
[Em]
There's hope [C]in the air
There's [Em]hope in the water
But no hope for me
[Am]Your last serving [Em]daughter
