B5     E5
B5     E5
B5     E5
B5     E5

B5            
Take this silver lining
                E5
Keep it in your own
B5           E5
Sweet head
B5
And shine it when the night is
        E5    B5  E5
Burning red
B5
Shine it in the twilight
                E5   B5          E5
Shine it on the cold, cold ground
B5
Shine it till these walls
              E5     B5     E5
Come tumbling down


F#5                    E5
We were born with our eyes wide open
F#5        E5
So alive with wild hope now
F#5  
Can you tell me why
A5                     B5
Time after time they drag you down
A5                   B5
Down in the darkest deep
A5                      Ab5     
Fools in their madness all around
A5                          E5
Know that the light don't sleep


Step into the silence
Take it in your own
Two hands
And scatter it like diamonds
All across these lands
Blaze it in the morning  
Wear it like an iron skin
Only things worth living for are
Innocence and magic, amen

We were born with our eyes wide open
So alive with wild hope now
Can you tell me why
Time after time they drag you down
Down in the darkest deep
Fools in their madness all around
Know that the light don't sleep

We were born with our eyes wide open
So alive with wild hope now
Can you tell me why
Time after time they drag you down
Down in the talk so cheap
Fools in their madness all around
Know that the light don't sleep

Time after time
They drag you down
Down in the darkness deep
Fools in their madness all around
Know that the light don't sleep
Know that the light don't sleep

Time after time
They drag you down
Down in the darkness deep
Fools in their madness all around
Know that the light don't sleep
Know that the light don't sleep
