I Will Illuminate Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Another place repeating the mantra
I'm here to stay ashamed of
where [C]I've been
And what I've seen
These eagle eyes that judge me
[Em]Another face conceiving the moment
It never leaves it's stakes,
it's [G]claim [C]on me
It's stakes, it's claim on me
A visionary in hiding
[Em]I'll [D]never[G][Am]
[Bm]make[C] it[Em]
I'll never make [D]it[G]
[Am][Bm][Em][C]
[Em]A crying wolf, this boy's become a man

[Verse 2]
I always [Em]thought I would
be different
With steady hands and heart
[D]And alway[G]s in con[D]trol
Be [G]holding fast, but slowly let[D]ting [Em]go
I always thought I would make a difference
But now I'm spending [F#m]lives [D]in
[G]stead of saving [D]souls
The [G]more I learn,
the less I [D]seem to [Em]know

[Verse 3]
Heavy hands [Em]holding his hatred
Static sun supressing secret
[C]screams
Dishonouring distant dreams
Can he ever stop [Em]it?
[F#][G][Am][Bm][C]
[Em]We'll never make it
We'll never make [D]it[G][Am][Bm][C]
[Em]The lion preys the man
can't break his chains

[Verse 4]
I always [Em]thought I would
be different
With steady hands and heart
[D]And alway[G]s in con[D]trol
Be [G]holding fast, but slowly let[D]ting [Em]go
I always thought I would make a difference
But now I'm spending [D]lives in
[G]stead of saving [D]souls
The [G]more I learn,
the less I [D]seem to [Em]know
[C]I will ill[D#]uminate
To try to help [C]myself
To feel something for [Em]nothing
I hung the images up to [D#]see
If I could still fake all the feel[C]ings
And try to be what you want
Be everything that [Em]you n[G]ee[D#]d[G][D#][G]
Be [D#]everything [G]tha[D#]t you nee[C]d
[G]

[Verse 5]
[Em]I'm here again, consumed in the moment
My mind reflects,
repeating it back [G]to [C]me
Repeating it back to me
Why would you even begin to try?
[Em]You'll never make it
You'll never make it
You'll never make it
You'll [G]never [Em]make it

[Verse 6]
I always [Em]thought I would
be different
With steady hands and heart
[D]And alway[G]s in con[D]trol
Be [G]holding fast, but slowly let[D]ting [Em]go
I always thought I would make a difference
But now I'm spending [D]lives in
[G]stead of saving [D]souls
The [G]more I learn,
the less I [D]seem to know
[Em][G][Bm][Em][C][Em]
