And the air was full of various storms and saints
                                          Am                              Dm                                    Em  
Prayed in the streets as the banks began to break
                                             Am                              Dm                                                                      Em  
And I'm in the throat of it, somewhere in the belly of the beast
                                                  Am                                      Dm                                              Em  
But you took your toll on me, so I gave myself over willingly
                             Am                                                         Dm                                                                                            Em  
You got a hold of me, I don't know how I don't just stand outside and scream
                Dm                                                              Am  
I am teaching myself how to be free
Am  
     The monument of a memory, you tear it down in your head
Dm                                                                              Em      Dm                                                                 Em  
     Don't make the mountain your enemy, get out, get up there instead
Am  
     You saw the stars out in front of you, too tempting not to touch
Dm                                                      Em                    Dm                                                    Em                 Dm  
     But even though it shocked you, something's electric in your blood    (play these as barred chords

                                                             C                         Am                                                            G  
And people just don't tire themselves, I'm calling life - lost
Dm                                                         C                      G  
     If you could just forgive yourself
Am  
     But I see you stumble, feet give way
Dm                                                                         Em  
     Outside the world seems a violent place
Am  
     But you had to have him, and so you did
Dm                                                                      Em  
     Some things you let go in order to live
Am  
     While all around you the buildings sway
Dm                                              Em  
     Singing our love made us this way
Am  
     I know you're bleeding, but you'll be ok
Dm                                                              Em  
     Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe
Dm                                                                         G                         Am  
     Hold on to your heart, don't give it away
Am  
     You'll find a rooftop to sing from, find a hallway to dance
Dm                                                                      Em                    Dm                                                                         Em  
     You don't need no edge to climb from, your heart is there, it's in your hands
Am  
     I know it seems like forever, I know it seems like an age
Dm                                                                 Em    Dm                                    Em                    Dm  
     But one day this will be over, I swear it's not so far away
                                                             C                         Am                                                            G  
And people just don't tire themselves, I'm calling life - lost
Dm                                                         C                      G  
     If you could just forgive yourself
Am  
     But I see you stumble, feet give way
Dm                                                                         Em  
     Outside the world seems a violent place
