[Intro 1]
[Am][E][Esus4][E][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Calm the
fire do not [E]fight anymore
They don't [G]know [Am]what they'[G]re saying
[Am]they don't know [D]anything at all
[F]For all [Dm]that matters is you know[Am]
that this is not their fault[E]
[Am]All the places we should n[E]ever go
[G]Lost between the cracks [Dm]something
[G]wic[D]ked waits below
And [F]all I'm saying there are [Am]some things better left un[E]seen [Am]at all

[Interlude 1]
[E][Am][F]
[Dm][D][A][Am][F][Dm][D][Am]
[F][Dm][D][Am][F][Dm][D][Am]

[Verse 2]
It's been so [Am]long it's tearing [F]me apart
I [Dm]cannot understand
or compre[Am]hend
Where we went wrong. Now we've
[F]come so far
[Dm]The madness [D]in our hearts
will never en[Am]d

[Verse 3]
'Cause [Dm]I've seen [E]it all[F]
I can't [G]fight it [Am]any more
[C]If I had[Dm] burned for[G]ever mo[Am]re
Is there [C]nothing left to save?[E][F][E]
'Cause

[Verse 4]
[Am]now more than
[C]ever what we [G]need[D]
[C]Is lov[Am]e to rep[C]lace all the ob [G]sce[D]ne
[C]Something [Am]good and something
[C]beautiful if [G]only we [D]could see
[C]That now [Am]more than
[C]ever what we [G]need
[D]Is a little love

[Interlude 2]
[Am][F][Dm][D][A]
[Am][F][Dm][D][Am]

[Verse 5]
Is there no [Am]more have we
[F]gone too far?
There's [Dm]nothing I can do
to make you [Am]sway
To see the blood running
[F]through our hearts
No [Dm]dif ferent from the blood
we've come [Am]to hate

[Verse 6]
When [Dm]I close [E]my eye[F]s
I dream [G]that we are [Am]col orblind
[C]And now you[Dm] know
you [G]can[Am]'t deny
[C]Only ignorance to blame
[E]

[Verse 7]
[Am]
'Cause now more than
[C]ever what we [G]need[D]
[C]Is lov[Am]e to rep[C]lace all the ob [G]sce[D]ne
[C]Something [Am]good and something
[C]beautiful if [G]only we could [D]see
That [Am]now more than e[C]ver what we [G]need
[D]Is a little love

[Interlude 3]
[Am][E][G][F#m]
[Am][E][G][F#m]

[Verse 8]
[Am]Now let it c[E]alm the fire that [G]burn
s within your [F#m]heart tonight
[Am]For some are too [E]blind to see the world
[G]as it's mea[D]nt to [F#m]be

[Verse 9]
When I [Dm]close [C]my eye[F]s
[G]I dream that we are [Am]col orblind
[C]And now[Dm] you know you can[G]'t den[Am]y
Only i[C]gnorance to blame
[E]

[Verse 10]
[Am]'Cause now more than
[C]ever what we [G]need[D]
[C]Is lov[Am]e to rep[C]lace all the ob [G]sce[D]ne
[C]Something [Am]good and something
[C]beautiful if [G]only we could [D]see
[C]That [Am]now more than e[C]ver
what [G]we need[D]
Is a [Am]little[F][Dm][A][Am][F][Dm]
[D]love
