E                         B
Skies hang heavy and they gather in the field of view
E                           B
Lift them higher so they're never hanging over you
G
Carry the load, with all your might
B
It's sinking though you'll be alright
A           G
Coming down
E                           B
Reach a plateau, but you're feeling like you just begun
E                    B
In the shadow of the heaven that you're holding on

Nervous or something, birds are bright
B
Cut all the lights, lit up the night
A           G
What a sight
E                   B
Looking over on the city that you once belonged
E                           B
Shrug your shoulders at the people who have done you wrong
G
Walking about the crowded street
B
The ones you love ten thousand feet
A     G
Below
 E                               B
Take the throne back, now we're singing the same old song
E                             B
Hold the throne now cause you never loved to move along
G
Never give up all through the years
B
It's plain to see, straight through the tears
A            G
your mistakes

Hand it over and we know how long it will take

Show me your hands so I can see
B
I'll understand more easily
A            G
All the time
E                       B
Break the silence if we think it's turning into sound
