       C 
Comfort me 
                           F 
From a world where no one cares 
                           Dm       G 
Where the words turn into cages 
                        C 
And memories cut like glass 
             C 
I closed my eyes on you 
                   F 
Put the blames on myself 
                       Dm        G 
The weight is on my shoulders 
                               C 
Throw my heart in the wishing well 

(parte 2) 
           Am                 C 
I've got to face and tame my demons 
    Am                  C 
so hard to start over again, 

yeah, I know. 
 Am                       C 
Through trials and tribulations 
  G                          F 
Salvation's like a long lost friend 

(part 3) 
      C                   G 
I'll take back all of the hurt 
          F                    C 
For your love I've taken for granted 
           G           F 
I'll do anything to change 
                   C 
If that's what it takes 

(parte 1) 
No use in pretending 
Ain't no pride in it all 
A cure for independence 
Is when you're standing in the cold 
Have I used have I used my chances 
Have my bridges all been burned 
Give me a sign of inspiration 
To find a stone that's left unturned 

(parte 2) 
         Am                 C 
I see a distant promise of Eden 
  Am                  C 
Lifting my spirits so high 
        Am                 C 
If I can break out of the circle 
      G                   F 
Gonna kiss that carousel goodbye 

(parte 3) 
I'll take back all of the hurt 
For your love I've taken for granted 
I'll do anything to change 
If that's what it takes 

(C F Dm G C) 

(parte 2) 
I've got to see a promise of Eden 
Lifting my spirits so high 
If I can break, break out of the circle 
Gonna kiss that carousel goodbye 

 C                         G 
I'll take back all of the hurt 
          F                   C 
For your love I've taken for granted 
          G             F 
I'll do anything to change , baby 
                   C 
If that's what it takes 
                      G 
Take back all of the hurt 
           F                   C 
For your love I've taken for granted 
          G          F 
I'll do anything to change 
                    C 
If that's what it takes 
                    C 
If that's what it takes
