C#m                               A
Oh solace, I fear the man I might become
         A                C#m
Your hypocrite, your hired gun
    C#m                   A
I count my demons one by one
        F#m        B   C#m
And you chase me as I run
 C#m                     A
I've seen your face in every bar
 A                             C#m
And all those late nights in her car
C#m                          A
I heard God meets you where you are
            F#m         B               C#m
Not just an apathetic hand out in the stars


[Chorus]
E     B   A                      E   B
Oh solace, we are a broken family
A                        E   B
At least we have sincerity
 A                         E    B
Let us rejoice and not deceive
 A*                          A
There is hope out there for you
                                C#m
Like there's hope out there for me


[Verse 2]
C#m                                      A
Oh solace, please send a crash to wake me up
     A                    C#m
The sound of your insistent drum
C#m                        A
I need to know that you're enough
        F#m     B     C#m
I am a skeptic and a son
                          A
If you are bigger than belief
                          C#m
If you are more than eyes can see
                         A
Then show me how I am to be
             F#m         B        C#m
And from the roots I'll learn to breath


[Chorus]
E     B   A                      E   B
Oh solace, we are a broken family
A                        E   B
At least we have sincerity
 A                         E    B
Let us rejoice and not deceive
 A*                          A
There is hope out there for you
                                C#m
Like there's hope out there for me


[Bridge]
C#m                A         E
Cut me like a sword, cut me like a sword
C#m                A       E
I want to show off my battle scars
C#m                A         E
Who I was before, who I was before
C#m                   A          E
I'll drown him in an ocean of my father's blood
