[Verse]
Am
Torchlight on these shadows
F
Daylight to the black
         Am
Ive been holding onto something
        G
But I'm giving it back
            Am
If I could reach out to you, dear
F
Reach back over time
           Am
If I could hold you
                             G
I'd tell that one day, it'll be all right

[Chorus]
    C                    Em  F
But sometimes people let you down
    C                   Em    F
And sometimes evil is a quiet town
      C               Em        F
Where nobody wants to hear your truth
    C               Em      F
And nobody wants to believe you
    G       Am
But I do, I do
                  F
Someone out there will, too

[Verse]
Am
Torchlight in a locked room
  F
Unwind and untangle this mess
           Am
If I could go back
                                  G
I'd hide you somewhere they would never guess
                Am
'Cause you're a blank page right now
            F
But they'll cover you in ink and black your heart out
      Am                                G
If anybody tells you not to tell, don't listen

[Chorus]
       C                    Em  F
'Cause sometimes people let you down and
C                 Em        F
Sometimes the old kings are crowned
       C               Em      F
'Cause nobody wants to see the light
    C               Em             F
And nobody wants to believe you're right
      G     Am
But I do, I do
                        F
And someone out there will, too
              C      F      C      F
Torchlight on you

We're gonna drag the dark into the torchlight
