Am C
In the spring we made a boat
F Am
Out of feathers, out of bones
C Am
We set fire to our homes,
F7M C
Walking barefoot in the snow
Am C
Distant rhythm of the drum
F Am
As we drifted towards the storm
C Am
Baby lion lost his teeth,
F7M C
Now they're swimming in the sea
Am C
Troubled spirits on my chest
F Am
Where they laid to rest
C Am
The birds all left my tall friend,
F7M C
As your body hit the sand
Am C
Million stars up in the sky
F Am
Formed a tigers eye
C Am
That looked down on my face,
F7M C
Out of time and out of place
Am
So hold on,
C F
Hold on to what we are,
Am C
Hold on to your heart
Am C F Am C Am F7M C (2x)
La la la...
Am C
Awaken by the sound
F Am
of a screaming owl
C Am
Chasing leafs in the wind,
F7M C
Going where we've never been
Am C
Said goodbye to you my friend,
F Am
As the fire spread
C Am
All that's left are your bones
F7M C
That will soon sink like stones
Am
So hold on,
C F
Hold on to what we are,
Am C
Hold on to your heart
Am C F Am C Am F7M C (2x)
La la la...
Am
So hold on,
Am C
Hold on to your heart
