[Intro 1]
[G][Em][Csus2][G]
[Em][Csus2][G]

[Verse 1]
Patiently
waiting for some new Jerusalem
[Em]A sacred time where demo[Csus2]ns
didn't know you
Then, [G]stood on the banks
clutching [D]rosary [G]noose
[Em]Open the floodgates and
aban[Csus2]don the sluice
[G]Oh,

[Verse 2]
Laura, I love you more
Than you'll ever know
[Em]How can I protect you from these t[C]hings
that you won't [G]let go?
[D][Em]

[Verse 3]
[Csus2]
I [G]wish I'd been older
I [D]wish I'd been more of
a guard[Em]ian
A shoulder to cry [C]upon,
[Csus2]a brother [G]to rely upon
I took your shel[D]ter, I didn't think [Em]twice
I owe you [C]everything, I [Csus2]owe you my li[G]fe
I was [D]afraid, I ran [Em]away
Oh, I [C]begged you [Csus2]to come for the s[G]kies
On [D]fire, and [Em]you couldn't [C]see
[Csus2]it at all[G]
[D][Em]

[Verse 4]
[C]
And [G]love is just [D]a word
You thought that you [Em]heard
All it means is nev[C]er,
never [Csus2]say never, no[G]
Don't [D]give up on me [Em]yet
Can you learn [C]to forgive all
that you learn to [G]forget?

[Verse 5]
It's just [D]a word
You thought that you [Em]heard
All it means is never[C],
never say never[G], no
Don't give [D]up on me [Em]yet
Can you learn to for[C]give all
that you learn to for[Csus2]get?
[C]

[Verse 6]
I'm trying [C]to find
a way back [Em]home[D][C]
I'm trying to find a way
back [Em]home[D][C]
I'm trying to find a way back
[Em]home[D][C]
I'm trying to find a way back [Em]home[D]

that you learn to forget?
