Intro
Em C Am Em

Verse
C         Am                   Em
How can I turn away from your gun
C         Am                        Em
How can I stay here when others would run
   D           C
I cast the blame
           D      Em
I fanned a dying flame
C         Am                       Em
All of my secrets breathe life to my lies
C         Am                          Em
All of my thoughts like the ocean they slide
D                C
Along the edge
           D          Em2
They linger on the banks
    C               D
In search of refuge

Chorus
G              C
Darling don't cry
G                C
Don't you know why
Bm                 A7    D7
This bird never flies

C           Am                        Em
It's night at the end of this heavenless day
C           Am                           Em
It's night at the end that will show me the way
   D          C
I tell myself
           D
We may still be saved

Chorus
