Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]
When I [D]opene[G] d my ey[C]es,
you were smil[D]ing
You were [G]standing by my
[C]mother's side
Just one [D]touch [G]of your [C]hand
made [D]the bright lights
Seem [G]less blinding in [C]this foreign land

[Verse 2]
I swam the [D]oceans,
[G]I saw the cit[C]ies
I climbed the [D]mountaintops[G]
and you were with [C]me
And when I [D]came [G]home,
your arms [C]were open
And I felt [D]protection in
[G]that moment[C]

[Verse 3]
In your own [G]way, with your own [C]two hands
You gave me [G]everything I
needed every [C]single time
[Em]So I say h[G]ey, even in ha[C]rd times
You are the [G]hope that I believe in,
you're my [C]peace of mind
[Em]In your own [G]way, with your own [C]two hands
You gave me [G]everything I
needed every single [C]time
[D]So I say [G]hey, even in [C]hard times
You are the [G]hope that I believe in, you're
my [C]peace of [D]mind[C]

[Verse 4]
[D]Oh- oh, my father
[G]Oh- [C]oh, my father
[D]Oh-[G] oh[C]

[Verse 5]
A single [D]word, a simple [G]glance
Could bring me home at [C]any
given time
[D]And I'm fine again,
[G]I'm standing fearless [C]now
Yes, I'm [D]home again,
[G]my feet won't leave [C]the ground
So I say [D]fi nally [C]I can hear the sound
Of the [D]blood that courses through
[G]me that [C]you handed down

[Verse 6]
In your own [G]way, with [C]your own two hands
You gave me [G]everything
I needed every [C]single time
[Em]So I s[D]ay h[G]ey, even i[C]n hard times
You are [G]the hope that I believe
in, you're my [C]peace of mind
[Em]In your ow[D]n wa[G]y,
with your [C]own two hands
You gave me [G]everything
I needed every [C]single time
[Em]So I say h[G]ey, even in ha[C]rd times
You are the [G]hope that I believe in, you're [C]my peace
[Em]of mind[D]

[G]your [C]arms were open
And I had pro[D]tection in that [G]moment[C]

You are the artist [D]that's inside me,
now I understand
