Lyrics

(Fsus2)Half way a round the world of lies the one thing that you want,

is (Dm11)bur ied in the ground

and (F)hun dreds of (Am7)miles (C)down.

The (Fsus2)first thing that a ris es in your mind when you a wake

is (Dm7)bend ing you ’til you break.

Let me hold you now.

(F)Ba by, close your eyes.

Don’t o pen ’til the morn ing light.

(F)Ba by, don’t for get

we have n’t lost it all

(Am7)yet.

(Fsus2)Don’t know a what you’re made of ’til the one thing that you want

is (Dm11)com ing with the dawn

and (F)sud den ly (Am7)chang (C)es.

The (Fsus2)Mon day syn di cate meets ev ’ry one the same, a wake

is (Dm7)all we’ve lost to the flame.

Lis ten to me now.

(F)Ba by, close your eyes.

Don’t o pen ’til the morn ing light.

(F)Don’t ev er for get

we have n’t lost it all

(Am7)yet.

yet.

(F)All we know for sure

(F)Ba by, don’t for get

we have

(Am7)yet.

(Am7)Some day when this is o ver,

(Am7)For now, it’s when I hold her.

Ah, (G)we are (F)clos er.
