[Intro]
       C
It's a long way up from rock bottom
There's been times I felt I could fall further I have loved and lost and feared and prayed
            Am  G      C    C/E F C
But now the day bursts wild and o-pen
I have cried tears at my brother's grave I have shaken hands with my wife's surgeon I spent weeks inside the darkest cage
            Am  G      C    C/E F C
But now the day bursts wild and o-pen

          F       C               F      G
There's a time to cry, there's a time to fall

          F        C                   F      G
There's a time for holding on but then let it go

          F       C          F       C
There's a time to run to the arms of hope

        Am  G      C    C/E N.C.
And the day bursts wild and open

If I look down, I can see replacements

Late-night drive and my heartbeat racing
