[Verse]

C                              Am
  Brother do you believe in an afterlife
             Em
Our souls'll both collide
              F                       C
In some great Elysium, way up in the sky

                                        Am
Free from our shackles, our chains, our mouths, our brains
           Em
We'll open all the gates
             F                           C
We will walk careless, straight into the light

| Am  | C   | Am  |


C                     Am
  I've never felt so enlightened
       Em
Every page I turn
        F                       C
I only find myself feeling more alone

                             Am
Posing questions to a silent universe
        Em
My very thoughts are cursed
                  F
They just seem to multiply, forever in my mind

Dm                   G
  Brother don't grow up
Dm                          F
  Brother please never grow up


[Interlude]

[Verse]

Em          F               C
  Just hold out against the night
Em               F              C
  and guard your hope with your life

        Dm                 G
For the darkness, she will come
       Dm                      F
Oh and you have nowhere left to run


            C                   Am                      G        G
Oh but your eyes are wider than mine, and help me to sleep
               C            Am                    G        G
Just hope that age does not erase all that you've seen
C       Am                    G         G
  Don't let bitterness become you
C           Am               G         G
  Your only hopes are within you


[Outro]

| C   | Am  | G   | G   | x2

Em          F               C
  Just hold out against the night
Em               F
  and guard your hope with your life
