I was half way up the mountain when the rocks I held gave way
                                                                                                          G                                 A  
Came tumbling like an avalanche, to the bottom wher I lay
                                  Bm                                            D  
Now with the taste of blood and twist of bone

My healing could begin

                  Bm                    D                                                                                         G  
'Cause everybody wishes they were born with thicker skin
Bridge
             G  
It's trickey how the heart works
When the break ups and the big jecks
             D  
Make never want to hurt that way again
G                                                         Em  
Maybe I'm naive but in every scare I see

A place where love is trying to break in

'Cause the wound is where the light
Verse 3
D                                                                                    G                                                    D  
You can recognise a saint by the scares they don't disguise
                                                                                                     G                                            A  
You can pick out a real sinner by the kindness in their eyes
        Bm                                              D                                                                                    G  
So if you're stumbling in the dark and bleeding at the (shin?)
