Em        F#
Well I was young 

B     F#        Am  Em
I was young and naive 

         F#
As I was told 

   B     F#      Am    Em
As I was told, so I  believed 

    D    Em                    F#  Am  Em       B
and I was told there's only one road that leads you home 



                    D              Am
and the truth was a cave on the mountainside 

         Em          D           B
and I'd seek it out until the day I died 

 F#  Am    B
Woo -  oh, woo- oh 


   F#        B   F#
I was bound

B       F#         D   Em

   B        F#

  F#  D  Em        B            F#   Em         B     F#
but I was blind to every sign you left for me to find 

          Em    A  Am             D     Em  B
and the truth became a tool that I held in my hand 

    Em                      F#   B 
I wielded it, but I did not understand

        F#     B   F#
I was tired 

   B       F#            D      F#
of giving more than you gave to me 

    B    F#         B     F#      D       F#
and I desired a truth I wouldn't have to seek 

    DF#     Em                   D     F#
but in the silence I heard you calling out to me
