Introduction:
E
bleeding til it hurts
Am
the need to start over again
E
the stillness with the burn
F#m A/B E
remembering how to begin
E
when will it be my turn
Am
when time and I become friends?
E
and how will all this work
F#m A/B E
when you know where I have been?
Pre-Chorus 1
A B
You see, the fire that was isn?t here
E/G#
my heart is hanging onto every fear
A B
Singing the words as i try to heal
E/G#
this dark and deepest part of me
F#m E B
trying to hold on
Chorus
E
Keep off the ledge, far from the edge now
F#m
wave the white flag, it?s time to back down
E F#m
wake up and set to keep your head above water
E
dive in the sea where you can be and
F#m
swim in the deep where you and I breathe
E F#m
wake up and set to keep your head above water

verse 2
E
for all and what its worth
Am
we rose and fell but in the end
E
we learn from how we were

everyone longs to pretend
E
drowning in the dark

even when the sun touches our face
E
reaching for the stars
A B E
as we look back in the race
