I held on to the hurt

Fought it like heaven and hell

And I lost every round

There wasn't anybody I would trust

So long since I felt love

I'd forgotten what it was
Am F G
Baby til you got a hold of my angry heart
Am
I saw the truth
F G
When you led my way out of the dark

I was draggin round these chains

Like some ghost in the hall

Swearing at the pain

And empty from it all
Am F G
Until you got a hold of my angry heart

Living in the past

Locked up with my rage

I buildt that prison myself

It's such a lonely cage

Your love changed my life when I thought my fate was sealed

Baby til you got a hold of my angry heart
