Look for something that is hard to find
Em G D
Searching somewhere deep inside your mind
Em G D
Hope you find just what you're looking for

Heaven's waiting with an open door

[Verse 1]
Em B Bb G
If you should sell your soul as cheaply as I did then
Em C D
The road to ruin is a long road to hide in
Em B Bb G
We signed our lives away to have an escape
Em C D
It's something that will be whatever our fate
[Pre-Chorus]
C
There's no use in hiding
Am
Got to keep on trying
Bm
Can't take no more lying, this is the last
C
There's no time for crying
Am
When some of us are dying
Bm Bm Am G D/F# Em D
None of us decide what is our fate
[Chorus]
Em G C
Now with nothing to hide going nowhere
G/B Am G D/F#
Take my chances and stand by their side
Em D
When the river runs deep
C
And the line breaks
G/B
And the blood it flows
Am G D/F#
Free from our lives
[Verse 2]
Em B Bb G
Is this the last together maybe this time now
Em C D
We stand together and we're holding the line here
Em B Bb G
There's nothing we can do just sit here and wait
Em C D
The die is cast that is deciding our fate
[Pre-Chorus]
C
There's no use in hiding
Am
Got to keep on trying
Bm
Can't take no more lying, this is the last
C
There's no time for crying
Am
When some of us are dying

None of us decide what is our fate
[Chorus]

Now with nothing to hide going nowhere

Take my chances and stand by their side

When the river runs deep
