I have made mistakes

But your still small voice

Was all that I could hear
BRIDGE 1

I am here

I'm holding you
F#m
You'll make it through this

I am here, I am here

CHORUS
A2 E
Whenever you run away
B A2
whenever you lose your faith
E
It's just another stroke of
B A2
the pen on the page
E
A lonely ray of hope
B A2
is all that you need
B E (if second time through, do a C#min for bridge 2)
to see a beautiful history

Well I have been such a fool

when I have known the truth

Doing what I want to do

I've been living solely

for myself and myself only
Bmin -> B
but your still small voice
is whispering

I feel so far from home

Completely on my own
G# A Bsus -> B
and then I hear you say
A2 B
I am here, I am here
A2 E
Whenever you run away
B A2
whenever you lose your faith
E
It's just another stroke of
B A2
the pen on the page

A lonely ray of hope
B A2
is all that you need
B A2 E
to see a beautiful history
B A2 E
a beautiful history
B A2 E
a beautiful history
