Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][C]
[Am][C]
[Am][C][Em]
[C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
It's empty in the [Am]valley of your [C]heart
The sun, it ris[Am]es slowly as you wa[C]lk
Away from all the [Am]fears
And all the [C]faults you've [Em]left be[C]hind[F][C]
The harvest left no [Am]food for you to [C]eat
You cannibal, you [Am]meat-eater, you [C]see
But I have seen the [Am]same
I know the [C]shame in [Em]your de[C]feat[F][C]

[Chorus 1]
But [C]I will h[F]old on h[C]ope
And I won't [F]let you [C]choke
[F]On the [C]noose a[G]round your neck
And [Am]I'll find [F]strength in [C]pain
And [Am]I will cha[F]nge my way[C]s
I'll [F]know my [C]name as [G]it's called again

[Interlude 1]
[Am][C]
[Am][C]
[Am][C][G]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 2]
'Cause I have other [Am]things to fill my [C]time
You take what is [Am]yours and I'll take [C]mine
Now let me at the [Am]truth
Which will re[C]fresh my [G]broken [C]mind[G][C]
So tie me to a [Am]post and block my [C]ears
I can see widows and [Am]orphans
through my [C]tears
I know my call de[Am]spite my faults
And de[C]spite my [G]growing [C]fears[G][C]

[Chorus 2]
But [C]I will h[F]old on h[C]ope
And I won't [F]let you [C]choke
[F]On the [C]noose a[G]round your neck
And [Am]I'll find [F]strength in [C]pain
And [Am]I will cha[F]nge my way[C]s
I'll [F]know my [C]name as [G]it's called again
[C][C]

[Verse 3]
So come out of your [Am]cave
walking on your [C]hands
And see the world [Am]hanging upside [C]down
You can understand de[Am]pendence
When you [C]know the [G]maker's [C]land[F][C]

[Bridge 1]
So [C]make your [F]siren's [C]call
And sing [F]all you [C]want
I [F]will not [C]hear what you [G]have to say
'Cause [Am]I need fr[F]eedom no[C]w
And [Am]I need to [F]know how[C]
To [F]live my [C]life as [G]it's meant to be

[Interlude 2]
[C][F][C]
[C][F][C]
[F][C][G]
[C][F][C]
[C][F][C]
[F][C][G]

[Chorus 3]
And [C]I will h[F]old on h[C]ope
And I won't [F]let you [C]choke
[F]On the [C]noose a[G]round your neck
And [Am]I'll find [F]strength in [C]pain
And [Am]I will cha[F]nge my way[C]s
I'll [F]know my [C]name as [G]it's called again
[C]
