Intro: C C C G x2
 
C G
When all of your wind has gone
 
Am F
And all on the paths you've drawn
 
C G
Have sunk to the ocean sands
 
Am F
Where no-one can see you stand
 
C G
Don't let the dark embrace
 
Am F
Cower the dreams you chase
 
C G
Under the rust and blood
 
Em F
Don't let yourself
 
(Note: Each chord is one bar long, it's easy to get lost without lyrics)
