Capo 1
 
Intro : E5     D5     B5    C5 


E5             D5
You are still burning
                   B5
The flame that is turning
               C5           E5
My smoldering ash into a bird
E5                    D5
So stay close my brother
                      B5
I couldn?t stand the loss
               C5
You are the bridge of action
A5                    E5
I need you to help me cross
A5                D5
I need you to help me

Chorus
D5             G5
So when you break
E5                    C5 
My arms I?ll take hold of you
D5             G5          E5                    C5    E5 
I know your hearts is a hand that takes hold of me

E5            D5
D5                 B5
B5          C5          E5

E5                  D5
My hand that is breaking
                      B5
Is the hand that is making
          C5                 A5
All the dead things in me grow
              E5
A gift of a holy loss
       A5           D5
This burning at the dross

Chorus
So when you break
My arms I?ll take hold of you
D5             G5          E5                    C5   Asus5
I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me


Bridge
                E5                  A5
Why do you set out to break the one thing
           E5                A5     E5
The one thing that I have to give
               A5
Its hard to believe that I could
D5              Bm7(b5) 
That I should begin again
G5       E5     A5         G5     D5   E5
But I know you heart is a hand

Chorus
So when I break
Your arms you?ll take hold of me
You know my hearts is a hand that takes hold of you
So when you break
My arms I?ll take hold of you
I know your hearts is a hand that takes hold of me
So when you break
My arms I?ll take hold of you
I know your hearts is a hand that takes hold of me
