(intro) Am
Am
Heaven bent to take my hand
F C
And lead me through the fire
G Am
Be the long awaited answer
F C
To a long and painful fight
Am
Truth be told I've tried my best
F C
But somewhere along the way
Am Em F
I got caught up in all there was to offer
Am Em F
And the cost was so much more than I could bear
Dm F
Though I've tried, I've fallen...
C G
I have sunk so low
Dm F
I have messed up
C G
Better I should know
Dm F
So don't come round here
C G D F E E7
And tell me I told you so...
Am
We all begin with good intent
F C
Love was raw and young
G Am
We believed that we could change ourselves
F C
The past could be undone
Am
But we carry on our backs the burden
F C
Time always reveals
G Am
The lonely light of morning
D F
The wound that would not heal
Dm F C
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
G Dm C G Dm
That I have held so dear I fallen… tell me I told you so...
C G F E E7
No oh oh oh
(Refrão)
Am
Heaven bent to take my hand
F C
At Nowhere left to turn
G Am
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
F C
To everyone I know
Am
Oh they turned their heads embarrassed
F C
Pretend that they don't see
Am
But it's one missed step
Em F
You'll slip before you know it
Am Em F
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed
(Refrão)
