verse 1: 

Bm                       D 
And if you see me losing ground 
D 
Don't be afraid to lie 
Bm                        D 
I know the pain inside my heart can't break 
D 
The fear inside of yours 
Bm                       D 
And if you see me losing faith 
D 
In what it means to die 
Bm                          D 
Don't let me leave before I know what lies 
D                        G 
Behind the stained glass doors 

Pre-Chorus 1:
 
Dsus2 Em     Bm      C        G 
Save  sorrow for the souls in doubt 
Dsus2 Em    Bm 
Bleed every care out 


C        Em                C                G  Bm 
Will you carry me down the aisle that final day 
          Em                   C                G   Bm 
With your tears and cold hands shaking from the weight 
         Em       D      G          Bm     C   D 
When you lower me down beneath that sky of gray 
        Em                 C              G  Bm   D 
Let the rain fall down and wash away your pain 

verse 2:
 
Bm                      D 
For every word we never spoke 
D 
We have a tear to cry 
Bm                       D 
For every silence like a wall between 
D 
A better you and I 
Bm                      D 
So if you see me losing sight 
D 
Of all the death in life 
Bm                             D 
You'll find the peace in every time I failed 
D                   G 
To see the death in mine 

Pre-Chorus 2: 

Dsus2 Em      Bm     C        G 
Let   all the fear inside you drown 
Dsus2 Em      Bm        C      G 
Tear  out the blade and lay it down 
Dsus2 Em     Bm      C        G 
Save  sorrow for the souls in doubt 
Dsus2 Em    Bm 
Bleed every care out 

Bridge: 

C  D  Em   Bm               C 
   Oh, the blood is rushing out 
D  Em   Bm             C 
Oh, I'm better off without 
D  Em   Bm                C 
Oh, the walls are closing in 
D  Em Bm            C 
Oh,   sing for me again
