D A
You're amazing but you're taking too much time
Bm
I've only got six candles left
G
And I'm trying to keep this off my mind
D A
It's getting darker but it's the way they make feel
Bm
They try to fill my head with questions
A G
They all doubt you but I know you're real
D A
If it takes time then I'll be patient
Bm
Know that I will still believe
G
I'll take your hand and hold it tightly
D
Because I know you'll carry me
[Refrão]
A Bm G D
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
A Bm
And when I'm tired, of wearing thin.
G D
Give me the strength to carry on
A Bm G D
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
A Bm G
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on
D A
And I'm so thankful for every breath I take
Bm
Theres not a moment that goes by
G
I waste wiping tears out of my crying face
D A
Don't look so sad, you've missed the point
Bm
I'm still so glad I knew you against the odds
G D
I'll take my chances and burn this candle through you
D A
If it takes time then I'll be patient
Bm
Know that I will still believe
G
I'll take your hand and hold it tightly
D
Because I know you'll carry me
[Refrão]
A Bm G D
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
A Bm
And when I'm tired, of wearing thin.
G D
Give me the strength to carry on
A Bm G D
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
A Bm G
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on
E B C#m A
If I could ever see the way you understand me
E B
When no one else can see it
C#m A
I know you surround me
E B C#m A
I'll be the one who listens only when you tell me
E B C#m A E
Not walking but running, not talking, yelling
E B
And they might never understand why I do what I do
C#m A
But I can only speak my mind
E
And what I feel is true
B
I'll take a vow to be the only one who stands if it takes
C#m A E
All that I am, I will be standing, there, there
[Refrão]
E B C#m A E
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
B C#m
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin
A E
Give me the strength to carry on
B C#m A E
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
B C#m E
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on (2x)
