Verse 1:
 
G 
 Just the thought of another day 
Dsus 
 How did we end up this way 
  Em             Cadd9     G  Dsus  Em  Cadd9 
What did we do wrong, God? 



G                           
 Even though the days go on 
Dsus 
    So far so far away from 
Em              Cadd9 
  It seems so close 



Verse 2:
 
G 
 Always weighing on my shoulder 
Dsus 
 A time like no other 
Em 
  It all changed on that day 
Cadd9 
 Sadness and so much pain 
G 
 You can touch the sorrow here 
Dsus                    Em 
 I don?t know what to blame 
                 Cadd9          
I just watch and watch again 


Chorus (x2) 


Pre-chorus:
 
Em                    C  
  What did it leave behind? 
                      G             D 
What did it take from us and wash away? 
  
It may be long 
Em             
  But with our hearts start a new 
    C 
And keep it up and not give up 
     G/B            Dsus D    
With our heads held high 



         G              D                 Em 
You have seen hell and made it back again 
                  
How to forget ? We can?t forget 
    C                D            G   
The lives that were lost along the way 
             G            D            Em 
And then you realize that wherever you go 

There you are, time won?t stop 
C      D          G 
So we keep moving on 

            Em    D        C 
Yesterday?s night turns to light 
           Em      D        C 
Tomorrow's night returns to light 
   D           G 
Oh ohh, be the light 



Instrumental: (G) Dsus  Em  Cadd9

G 
 Always weighing on my shoulder 
Dsus

 Sadness and so much pain 
G 
 Anyone can close their eyes 
Dsus                      Em 
 Pretend that nothing is wrong 

Open your eyes 
   Cadd9 
And look for light

  What did it leave behind?

It may be long

And keep it up and not give up
