[Intro]
C F
[Verse 1]
F G Am G
I used to dream about the heroes of stories
F G C/E C/E
As life became an endless night
F G Am G
When hope was gone you resurrected my spirit
F G C/E C/E
Brought me from darkness into light
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Dm F F
I can sense a storm is coming
Am G F F
Anchoring you to me
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Far beneath my skin and bones
Am F C G
I harbor my divided soul
F F Am
My greatest source of strength
Am C C G G
Might be my downfall
Am F C G
But love was not a choice for me
Am F C G
I held my breath and took a leap
F F Am Am
And when I lose myself
C C G G
You help me stand so tall
[Verse 2]
F G Am G
I listen closely and hear sweet strains of music
F F G C/E C/E
I’m captured in a reverie
F G Am G
Through all these years you’ve been my quiet salvation
F F G C/E
Reflecting who I want to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Dm F F
Please for my sake no more talk of
Am G F F
Blessings and curses tonight
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Far beneath my skin and bones
Am F C G
I harbor my divided soul
F F Am
My greatest source of strength
Am C C G G
Might be my downfall
Am F C G
But love was not a choice for me
Am F C G
I held my breath and took a leap
F F Am Am
And when I lose myself
C C G G
You help me stand so tall
[Bridge]
F G Am G
Standing in silence we look out at the water
F G C/E C/E
Amazed how much the world has changed
F G Am G G
I see behind your eyes such wisdom and sorrow
F F G C/E C/E
You’re wondering if we’re still the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Dm F F
I felt more love than I could
Am G F F
Give in just one lifetime
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Far beneath my skin and bones
Am F C G
I safekeep our united souls
F F Am
My greatest source of strength
Am C C G G
Was not my downfall
Am F C G
But love was not a choice for me
Am F C G
I held your hand and took a leap
F F Am Am
I'll never lose myself
C C G G
You help me stand so tall
[Outro]
