* = let ring
[Verse 1]
C#m A
Oh solace, I fear the man I might become
A C#m
Your hypocrite, your hired gun
C#m A
I count my demons one by one
F#m B C#m
And you chase me as I run
C#m A
I've seen your face in every bar
A C#m
And all those late nights in her car
C#m A
I heard God meets you where you are
F#m B C#m
Not just an apathetic hand out in the stars
[Chorus]
E B A E B
Oh solace, we are a broken family
A E B
At least we have sincerity
A E B
Let us rejoice and not deceive
A* A
There is hope out there for you
C#m
Like there's hope out there for me
[Verse 2]
C#m A
Oh solace, please send a crash to wake me up
A C#m
The sound of your insistent drum
C#m A
I need to know that you're enough
F#m B C#m
I am a skeptic and a son
A
If you are bigger than belief
C#m
If you are more than eyes can see
A
Then show me how I am to be
F#m B C#m
And from the roots I'll learn to breath
[Chorus]
E B A E B
Oh solace, we are a broken family
A E B
At least we have sincerity
A E B
Let us rejoice and not deceive
A* A
There is hope out there for you
C#m
Like there's hope out there for me
[Bridge]
C#m A E
Cut me like a sword, cut me like a sword
C#m A E
I want to show off my battle scars
C#m A E
Who I was before, who I was before
C#m A E
I'll drown him in an ocean of my father's blood
