[Verse]
EmWe sit home and spGeak
DmOf a god we’ve neAmver seen
And wonder if he
EmWatches when we slGeep
DmOr when I looked on moAmlly’s desk
And copied her whole shEmeet
And oh I know I’m yoGung
To speak with such disDmdain
An urgAmency
[Chorus]
So thEmis is my confession
I hope you listen
Will Saint ChGristopher bring me to my destinationDm  
And brAming us all back home
EmAm I alive I almost feel it
GRiding the waves of aAmll my demons I’Emll drift away
[Instrumental]
G         Am
[Verse]
EmWe dressed all in bGlack
DmMomma wears her maAmkeup dark
And talks so softly
Em“son one day you’ll lGearn
DmThat everyone you kAmnow will leave
Never to retEmurn”
And oh a man so yoGung
Taken way too sDmoon
From aAmll he loved
[Chorus]    
So tEmhis is my intention
To break tradition
Could I giGve you myself to bring him back this instantDm  
And brAming us all back home
[Pre-Chorus]
Watched you fiEmght with the darkness
But you just couldn’t win
Once so stGrong, full of power
Now fragile and thin
I’ll bring you bEmack, oh I swear
I can figure this out
I know maAmny have tried
But I won’t let you down
I’m not afrEmaid of the man
I read about in the books
The one that taGkes you away
If you end it too soon
I’ll turn the daDmrkness on me
I’ll travel up through the wind
And if they don’t oAmpen the gates 
I’ll break my way in
[Instrumental]
Em Em Am Em
Em Em Am Em G

[Verse]

Em G

We sit home and speak

Dm Am

Of a god we’ve never seen

And wonder if he

Em G

Watches when we sleep

Dm Am

Or when I looked on molly’s desk

And copied her whole sheet

And oh I know I’m young

To speak with such disdain

An urgency

[Chorus]

So this is my confession

I hope you listen

G Dm

Will Saint Christopher bring me to my destination

And bring us all back home

Am I alive I almost feel it

G Am Em

Riding the waves of all my demons I’ll drift away

[Instrumental]

G Am

[Verse]

Em G

We dressed all in black

Dm Am

Momma wears her makeup dark

And talks so softly

Em G

“son one day you’ll learn

Dm Am

That everyone you know will leave

Never to return”

And oh a man so young

Taken way too soon

From all he loved

[Chorus]

So this is my intention

To break tradition

G Dm

Could I give you myself to bring him back this instant

And bring us all back home

[Pre-Chorus]

Watched you fight with the darkness

But you just couldn’t win

Once so strong, full of power

Now fragile and thin

I’ll bring you back, oh I swear

I can figure this out

I know many have tried

But I won’t let you down

I’m not afraid of the man

I read about in the books

The one that takes you away

If you end it too soon

I’ll turn the darkness on me

I’ll travel up through the wind

And if they don’t open the gates

I’ll break my way in

[Instrumental]

Em Em Am Em

Em Em Am Em G
