[Intro]

A D G

[Verse]

A D G G

Talking circles past midnight

A D G G

How the drought dried your eyes, eyes, eyes

Is your heart in the mud?

Buried deep by the flood?

I'll wait

All the vultures above

Are they out for your blood?

I'll stay

[Pre-Chorus]

Chase you through the night

Drag you into light

Toil in vain for you

Take all the pain for you

Running till your wild

Through a wall of fire

Rewrite your name for you

I'll break the chains for you

[Chorus]

A G

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah-ah-ah, I'll break the chains for you

A G

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah-ah-ah, I'll break the chains for you

[Verse]

A D G G

All alone in a cold space

A D G G

See your future as a blank page

When the floor's falling out

Like a slave to your doubt

I'll wait

When you stop to restart

Pull the pieces apart

I'll stay

[Pre-Chorus]

Chase you through the night

Drag you into light

Toil in vain for you

Take all the pain for you

Running till your wild

Through a wall of fire

Rewrite your name for you

I'll break the chains for you

[Chorus]

A G

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah-ah-ah, I'll break the chains for you, toil in vain for you

A G

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah-ah-ah, I'll break the chains for you, toil in vain for you

[Chorus]
