Verse:
It's empty in the [Am]valley of your [C]heart
The sun, it rises [Am]slowly as you [C]walk
Away from all the [Am]fears
And all the [C]faults you've [G]left [C]behind [F] [C]
The harvest left no [Am]food for you to [C]eat
You cannibal, you [Am]meat-eater, you [C]see
But I have seen the [Am]same
I know the [C]shame in [G]your [C]defeat [F] [C]
Chorus:
But [C]I will [F]hold on [C]hope
And [C]I won't [F]let you [C]choke
[F]On the noose [C]around your [G]neck
And [Am]I'll find [F]strength in [C]pain
And [Am]I will [F]change my [C]ways
[F]I'll know my [C]name as it's [G]called again
Verse:
Cause I have [Am]other things to fill my [C]time
You take what is [Am]yours and I'll take [C]mine
Now let me at the [Am]truth
Which will ref[C]resh my br[G]oken mi[C]nd [F] [C]
So tie me to a [Am]post and block my [C]ears
I can see [Am]widows and orphans through my [C]tears
I know my call despite my [Am]faults
And [C]despite my [G]growing [C]fears [F] [C]
Chorus:
But [C]I will [F]hold on [C]hope
And [C]I won't [F]let you [C]choke
[F]On the noose [C]around your [G]neck
And [Am]I'll find [F]strength in [C]pain
And [Am]I will [F]change my [C]ways
[F]I'll know my [C]name as it's [G]called again
Verse:
So come out of your [Am]cave walking on your [C]hands
And see the world [Am]hanging upside [C]down
You can understand [Am]dependence
When you [C]know the [G]maker's [C]hand [F] [C]
Chorus:
So [C]make your [F]siren's [C]call
And [C]sing [F]all you [C]want
I [F]will not [C]hear what you [G]have to say
Cause [Am]I need [F]freedom [C]now
And[Am]And I [F]need to know [C]how
To [F]live my [C]life as it's [G]meant to be
But [C]I will [F]hold on [C]hope
And [C]I won't [F]let you [C]choke
[F]On the noose [C]around [G]your neck
And [Am]I'll find [F]strength in [C]pain
And [Am]I will [F]change my [C]ways
[F]I'll know my [C]name as it's [G]called again
