On the CD, it is played with no capo. But for me to sing it, I play it in Capo 3 since I 
have a high range.  You could also play it in the key of C if you would like it lower.
Verse 1:
GLike a cannon ball to my chest
EmHer words ripped me in two
DI wished her all of the best
C2And she wished me the truth
GSo what am I supposed to do?
EmNow that I've lost all I've known
DThe heavy heart that's inside of me
C2Is sinking like a stone
Sinking like a stoneD  
Chorus:
GSave me
EmSave me
DI need more than just a hand to hold
C2I need to be carried
GSave me
EmSave me
DBring your sweet redemption
C2and promise promise to never leave
Verse 2:
Like a soldier going off to war
It hurt to let him go
I did what needed to be done
But now I'm feeling so alone
We built a home out of sand
But the tide kept coming strong
Looking back at calloused hands
I can only stand so long
Now all my hope is gone
Chorus
GSave me
EmSave me
DI need more than just a hand to hold
C2I need to be carried
GSave me
EmSave me
DBring your sweet redemption
C2and promise promise to never leaveD  G  
GYou are the place where I belong
EmI'll never know where I went wrong
DForever I am holding on
C2to the hope of youD  
C2The hope of youD  G  
GSave me
(won't you save me?)
EmSave me
DI need more than just a hand to hold
C2I need to be carriedD  
GSave me
EmSave me
DBring your sweet redemption
C2and promise promise to never leaveD  
C2Oh promise promise to never leaveD  G

Like a cannon ball to my chest

Her words ripped me in two

I can only stand so long

Now all my hope is gone
