Am
this hallway's dark and empty 
                      F                                D
just miles and miles of endless road
Am
I've got a sickness pounding in my head
                      F                         D
I'm at the mercy of the ghosts 

Am
But what it would take to live 
                    F                        D
As if I would not another day
Am
To live without despair 
                    F                                D
And to be without another desdain

CHORUS:
                F                        G
How can I instill such hope
              Am                         D
But be left with none of my own?
                            F
what if I could sing 
                   G
Just one song
                     Am                      D
And it might save somebody's life

Am
I sought after 
              F                  D
after reasons to stay 
Am
i was lost 
         F                    D
i was lost 

Am
Then the sky turned black
                F                         D
And the rains poured down
Am
I was waiting 
                      F                  D
waiting to be found 

oh, no 


Chorus:

                F                        G
How can I instill such hope
              Am                         D
But be left with none of my own?
                            F
what if I could sing 
                   G
Just one song
                     Am                      D
And it might save somebody's life
 
              


Am                
then I would sing 
                         D 
All that I can sing 
F        
Because that is when 
G                                                D
When I feel that I'm not counting time 

Am
Oh, and I sing 
                         D
All that I can sing 
F
Maybe just for the moment 
G                                       D
Things would seem all right 

F                   G
Oh, and I sing 
Am                D
Oh, and I sing 
F                   G
Oh, and I sing 
Am               D
Oh, and I sing
