EWe crawled nG#might and day through the tears and debris 
F#mNow I'm reacBhing out to you but I'm keeping my hands clean 
EThe tablG#mes are turning the tempo slows down 
F#mAnd we're Bgettin' off this misery-go-round 
EIt's a G#mbrand new world baby now things have changed 
F#mA brand new Bpicture in a brand new frame
A Eturn of G#mthe page with a blink of your eye 
Our F#mtwo steps in rhytBhm our hearts beatin' time 
On the C#minside, Bit all happened on the C#minside 
AIt all went down on the Einside
A critical moment I know you'd agree 
Both of us separate but neither one free 
We traded our papers for new walking shoes 
But I had no idea how I'd feel without you
We watched it unravel we heard it unwind 
Imprisoned by anger embittered by time 
No one could tell me we'd be standing here today
Steeled by the fire and sealed by the pain 
On the inside it all happened on the inside 
It all went down on the inside
AI'm holding Bon to you and I G#mknow you're holding Aon to me too
We gave it Bone more chance and found the G#mkey to roAmance 
Now none of it happens like we think it should be 
Hey it'd all be disaster if left up to me 
By the power of love and protection divine 
We found we hold hands through the darkness and then there was light 
On the inside it all happened on the inside 
It all went down on the inside
