[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][Am][G][D][Am][C][G][Dm][Am][G][C][Dm]
[G]
How I [Am]wish that [G]I could tell

[Verse 1]
[D]you[G][D][G]
It's to you that I would [D]run
[Am]You were the p[G]lace that I could
[Dm]al ways rest my he[Am]ad
When my [G]world had [C]come undone
[Dm]

[Verse 2]
[G]'Cause I've been wrestling
with my [D]demons[G][D][G]
Telling me I have [D]no [Am]choice
How I [G]wish that I could [Dm]lean
upon [Am]you now
Amidst [G]the chaos an[C]d the n[F]oise[Dm]

[Verse 3]
[G]Your [C]light [G]buried the [F]dark
[Dm][F][Am]
[G]A constant [C]unwav[G]ering
[Dm]hear[F]t[Am]

[Verse 4]
[G]You were the well to cool
my [D]fury[G][D][G]
Deep and calm your water[D]s feel
[Am]Your quiet words[C] a s[G]alve
[Dm]to soothe my wayward [Am]soul
It was [G]there I [C]learned to [F]heal[Dm]

[Verse 5]
[G]Your [C]light [G]buried [Dm]the dark[F][Am]
[G]A constant [C]unwav[G]ering hea[Dm]rt[F]

[Verse 6]
Oh I hope that you can [D]hear
[G]me[D][G]
Through the ravages of [D]time[Am]
You have car[G]ried me through
[Dm]more than you could know
[Am]I still feel[G] your hand[C] in mine
[F]

[Verse 7]
[G]Your [C]light [G]buried [F]the dark[Am]
A [G]constant [C]unwav[G]ering hea[F]rt[Am]

[Verse 8]
[G]Your [C]light [G]buried [F]the dark[Am]
[G]A constant [C]unwav[G]ering heart
