Note: you can use a standard Bm for Bm2, but the latter gives it a special resolve to C 
add D
INTRO: G, Bm2, C add D, D       Chord Notes: Bm2: 
X20230, C add D: X32O3X
(G)Just outside the (D)place
Two (Em) people (G) face
(C add D) Each other (C))merely by (G)chance (D)

(G) Abandoned by (D) words
And the (Em) purpose they (G) serve
It (C add D) stops them (C )right in their (D)tracks

(C) How long has it (Am7) been
Since this (Bm2) feeling (G) within
Has (C add D) made you (C )forget who you (D)are?

(D) Let's you (G) believe once (Bm2) more in the (C add D)moon
(D) Let's you have(G) faith (Bm2) again in the (C add D)stars
(D) Let's you go (G)free 'cause (Bm2) someone broke (C add D) through
The(D) wall around your (G) heart  (Bm2) (C add D) (D)

Now the (G)world is (D)unkind (Em)most of the (G)time
And (C add D)most of the(C ) time we (G)survive (D)
Hard (G) look at (D)yourselves and (Em) love double (G)crosses
That all (C add D) broken (C) hearts seem to (D) find

(C)After giving too (Am7) much
They're  (Em) afraid of the (G) touch
Because the (Bm2) last just (C add D) left A (D) scar

(D) If you (G)believe once (Bm2) more in the (C add D)moon
(D)And if you have (G) faith (Bm2) again in the (C add D)stars
(D)You can go (G) free because (Bm2) someone broke (C add D)through
The(D)  wall around your (G) heart

 Bridge:
(F ) There's walls made of (Am7)steel
There was (F) walls made of ( C) stone
And (Em) walls made of (C add D) fear (D)alone

(G)Sooner or (D) later, it's all (Em) human (G) nature
(C add D) Propelling you (C) forward  (G) again
(D) It's the (G)step and the (D)chance, the (Em) turn and a (G)glance
Asking, (C add D)where in the (C)world have you (D)been?

But (C ) you don't have to (Am7) answer
'Cause (Em) now you're a ( G) dancer
And the (Bm2)  music is (C add D) ready to (D) start

(D)You can (G) believe once (Bm2 ) more in the (C add D)moon
(D) You can have (G)faith (Bm2 ) again in the (C add D) stars
(D)And you can go (G) free 'cause (Bm2) someone broke ( C add D) through
(D)You can go (G)free 'cause (Bm2 ) someone broke ( C add D) through
(D) The wall around your (G) heart  (G ) (Bm2) (C 
add D) (D) ( G)
