--------

E1                              E1         
I will wait like nothing I have ever waited for 
 E1                                       D           A          E
I will catch your tears from falling; Until from my hands they fall 
        E1                  E1                                    
You can leave me abandoned, I'll be here if you want back in 
E1                                     D     A         E
Like the rest I have been branded so far beneath the skin
   D     A         E 
So far beneath the skin 

Refrain: (there is always a Riff before each chord,see at the end...)

          E             D             C#    C
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven 
          E             D             C#    C
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven 
couplet:
Here I have been standing while the time has come and gone 
I tried singing to you, but you turned my words to stone 
Here I have been waiting, it seems for quite a while 
Changed all my reflections 
But inside I'm still just a child 
But inside still just a child 
Refrain:
          E             D             C#    C
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven
          E             D             C#    C      D 
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven 

(Bridge: Eo(Do) Co(Bo)  Do(Co)     (see at the end for details)
couplet:
These eyes weren't made for crying; This love wasn't made to waste 
These arms weren't made for battle, but to share your warm embrace 
refrain:
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven 
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven
