[Verse I]
 AmAnd the air was fuGll
Of Fvarious storms and Esus4saintsE  
Praying in the sAmtreet
As the Dmbanks began to breaEmk
And I'm in the Amthroes of it
SoDmmewhere in the belly of the beaEmst
But you took your Amtoll on me
So I Dmgave myself over willingEmly
Oh, you got a Amhold on me
I don't know Dmhow I don't just stand outside and sEmcream
I am Dmteaching myself how to be Emfree
[Verse II]
AmThe monument of a memory
You tear it down in your head
DmDon't make the mountain your enemy
EmGet out, get up there instead
AmYou saw the stars out in front of you
Too tempting not to touch
DmBut even though it shocked you
EmSomething's electric in your blood
[Pre-Chorus]
 DmAnd people just unCtie themselves
 AmUncurling lifeGlinesDm  
If you could just forAmgive yourselGf
[Chorus]
AmBut still you stumble, feet give way
DmOutside the world seems a viEmolent place
AmBut you had to have him, and so you did
DmSome things you let go in Emorder to live
AmWhile all around you the buildings sway
DmYou sing it out loud, who Emmade us this way
AmI know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay
DmHold on to your heart, you'Emll keep it safe
FHold on to your heartEm, don't give it awayAm  
[Verse III]
AmYou'll find a rooftop to sing from
Or find a hallway to dance
DmYou don't need no edge to Emcling from
DmYour heart is Emthere, it's in your hands
AmI know it seems like forever
I know it seems like an age
DmBut one day this will be Emover
DmI swear it's not so far aEmway
[Pre-Chorus]
 DmAnd people just unCtie themselves
 AmUncurling lifeGlinesDm  
If you could just forAmgive yourselGf
[Chorus]
AmBut still you stumble, feet give way
DmOutside the world seems a viEmolent place
AmBut you had to have him, and so you did
DmSome things you let go in Emorder to live
AmWhile all around you the buildings sway
DmYou sing it out loud, who Emmade us this way
AmI know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay
DmHold on to your heart, you'Emll keep it safe
FHold on to your EmheartAm

[Verse I]

Am G

And the air was full

F Esus4 E

Of various storms and saints

Praying in the street

Dm Em

As the banks began to break

And I'm in the throes of it

Dm Em

Somewhere in the belly of the beast

But you took your toll on me

Dm Em

So I gave myself over willingly

Oh, you got a hold on me

Dm Em

I don't know how I don't just stand outside and scream

Dm Em

I am teaching myself how to be free

[Verse II]

The monument of a memory

You tear it down in your head

Don't make the mountain your enemy

Get out, get up there instead

You saw the stars out in front of you

Too tempting not to touch

But even though it shocked you

Something's electric in your blood

[Pre-Chorus]

Dm C

And people just untie themselves

Am G Dm

Uncurling lifelines

Am G

If you could just forgive yourself

[Chorus]

But still you stumble, feet give way

Dm Em

Outside the world seems a violent place

But you had to have him, and so you did

Dm Em

Some things you let go in order to live

While all around you the buildings sway

Dm Em

You sing it out loud, who made us this way

I know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay

Dm Em

Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe

F Em Am

Hold on to your heart, don't give it away

[Verse III]

You'll find a rooftop to sing from

Or find a hallway to dance

Dm Em

You don't need no edge to cling from

Dm Em

Your heart is there, it's in your hands

I know it seems like forever

I know it seems like an age

Dm Em

But one day this will be over

Dm Em

I swear it's not so far away

[Pre-Chorus]

Dm C

And people just untie themselves

Am G Dm

Uncurling lifelines

Am G

If you could just forgive yourself

[Chorus]

But still you stumble, feet give way

Dm Em

Outside the world seems a violent place

But you had to have him, and so you did

Dm Em

Some things you let go in order to live

While all around you the buildings sway

Dm Em

You sing it out loud, who made us this way

I know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay

Dm Em

Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe

F Em Am

Hold on to your heart
