      Ab              Bbm     Ab
I was twenty-two when I first died
           Ab             Bbm    Eb
But in the darkest dark I saw no light
           Fm                Db     Ab
And it was blinding just how dim it got
         Fm                   Ab    Eb
It was a cold I thought could never come

          Ab               Bbm      Ab
And I had hurt before, but not like this
           Ab                 Bbm   Eb
It was the strangest struggle I had ever hit
      Fm             Db    Ab
I was useless to the world around me
          Fm            Db          Bbm
To barely gather up the strength to say

Ab    Eb             Ab [ch]Ab/G[/ch]  Fm   Db
Save  me  when  the  ri-vers  run  dry
Ab    Eb           Ab [ch]Ab/G[/ch] Fm  Db
Bring me where the waters  run deep
          Ab          Eb
Where the eyes cannot see

It was 25 and I died again
         Ab               Bbm      Eb
And I prepared myself for what the world would send
             Fm                 Db    Ab
'Cause I had felt this darkness wrap around me
                 Fm               Ab     Eb
And through it's strangle I could barely beg

Ab    Eb             Ab [ch]Ab/G[/ch]  Fm   Db
Save  me  when  the  ri-vers  run  dry
Ab    Eb           Ab [ch]Ab/G[/ch] Fm  Db
Bring me where the waters  run deep
          Ab          Eb
Where the eyes cannot see

I won't forget about all

The pieces I've lost

I'm nearing 29 and I haven't died
        Ab                Bbm    Ab
And I'm done with cursing at the skies
        Ab            Bbm    Ab
And I remember how my mother spoke
               Ab             Fm
When she said "Son, don't be afraid
   Bbm
To call on those who love you most"
