Little Hell [Verse]
Am
This hallway's dark and empty

               F                      Dm
Just miles and miles of endless road

           Am
I've got a sickness pounding in my head

           F                     Dm
I'm at the mercy of the ghosts

                          Am
But what it would take to live

                    F          Dm
As if I would not another day

                  Am
To live without despair

                 F         Dm
And to be without disdain
[Chorus]
                F            G
How can I instill such hope

        Am                        Dm
But be left with none of my own?

                  F
What if I could sing

           G
Just one song

              Am               Dm
And it might save somebody's life
[Verse]
  Am
I sought after

       F               Dm
after reasons to stay

       Am
I was lost

       F      Dm
I was lost

          Am
Then the sky turned black

         F                 Dm
And the rains poured down

      Am
I was waiting

               F          Dm
waiting to be found oh, no
[Chorus]
                F            G
How can I instill such hope

        Am                        Dm
But be left with none of my own?

                  F
What if I could sing

           G
Just one song

              Am               Dm
And it might save somebody's life
[Verse]
              Am
Then I would sing

               Dm
All that I can sing

                 F
Because that is when

        G                          Dm
When I feel that I'm not counting time

          Am
Oh, and I sing

               Dm
All that I can sing

       F             G
Maybe just for the moment

                   Dm
Things would seem all right
[Outro]
          F         G
Oh, and I sing

          Am        Dm
Oh, and I sing

          F         G
Oh, and I sing

          Am        Dm
Oh, and I sing
