Intro:Bm, A, G, F# A /// Bm, D A, G, F# A(hold) 

Bm          A                       G  
And all the things that we tie together
       F#     A     Bm
Keep unraveling apart,
         D          A
And the light that used
    G      F#  A           Bm
To burn so bright now is dark.
         A                      G
With anger-faced intent we set fire
        F#     A        Bm    
To the bridges that remain and
        D       A         G       F#  A  A#
They're wading through the current now

          Bm           C             G
And they drown in the flood of the tears
      A    F#    Bm
That have been wept,
        C           G
And I scream to the sky:
      A      F#     [Bm and other intro chords]
"No, you are not alone..."

       Bm                 A
If you think that your words
                     G
Will ever make a difference,
        F#      A       Bm
Think again and carry on
              D      A         G
Because the weight behind the hand
       F#   A      Bm
That holds us is strong,
    D        A            G
But there is hope in the roar
       F#       A        Bm
Of a thousand pleading cries
          A          
And all these things
              G       F#  A  A#
That we tie together...

      Bm              C
The sound of their tongues
        G        A  F#  Bm
Being bitten is all I hear
         C                          G
As we fire at the whites of their eyes,
      A        F#           Bm 
Then dance on ashes of the world

[If you can't play solo, use intro chords]

          Bm          C              G
As they drown in the flood of the tears
      A   F#     Bm
That have been wept,
            C              G
And their tongues being bitten
    A      F#        Bm
Is all that I can hear,
      C              G 
As I scream to the sky:
    A   F#   Bm C G A F#  
"I need you nooooooooow..."

Bm       A        
Can you feel this truth 
G     F#   A   Bm
Now unraveling?
         D             A       G
Or will you chase the burning sun
   F#   A    Bm
Into the sea?
