Pre-Chorus: 

Cadd9                   D 
Climb the mountains, swim for shore 

Cadd9           D 
Bring it back (to) how it was before 



Cadd9           G       D 
Take it out, blow it up, ignite the memory in between us 

Cadd9                   G                       D 
Through the storm and all the dust  take out these walls with a cannonball 



Cadd9            D       Em       D     Cadd9 

But don?t let it go, don?t give up the ghost (Gold/Goal?) 

Cadd9 
While staring at the moon and the sun 

                D 
Just trying to remember where we came from 

(First time through go back up to intro and play through again) 

Cadd9           Em              Cadd9           D     Cadd9     Em     D 
(Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh, ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh 2x through)
