Intro: D  A  G  D 


Verse 
D             G 
No time to be wayward 
D               G 
No time to be unwound 
D                     G 
With darkness at your doorstep 
          Bm          A 
Keep your feet on the ground 


Verse 
              D          G 
There will be times of injustice 
D                                 G 
Times when there’s more lost than found 
     D                       G 
Down times mixed with days of wonder 
      Bm                  A 
A real-life spinning merry-go-round 


          D                 
With this back against the wall 
         G         Bm 
All will soon be revealed 
       D                 A 
Sirens sound and spirits fall 
               G                 D 
With just this back against this wall 


Solo 
D  G  Bm  D  A  G  D 


Verse 
    D                   G 
The signs will serve as your guide 
          D                  G 
Above the water with it held high 
        D             G 
May you always go the distance 
            Bm           A 
Through the darkness and the light 


Verse 
        D                     G 
All the signs say pick up the pieces 
        D                         G 
All the signs say make a stand as one 
        D                   G 
What survives the long cold winter 
        Bm                    A 
Will be stronger and can’t be undone 


 
          D                 
With this back against the wall 
         G         Bm 
All will soon be revealed 
       D                 A 
Sirens sound and spirits fall 
               G                 D 
With just this back against this wall 

          D                 
With this back against the wall 
         G         Bm 
All will soon be revealed 
       D                 A 
Sirens sound and spirits fall 
               G                 D 
With just this back against this wall
