[Chorus]
   A
[tab]        G
Hold on tight, the night has come

       D
Fasten up your earthly burdens

[Verse 1]
       Asus2
In the ink of an eye I saw you bleed

              Em
Through the thunder I could hear you scream

G
Solid to the air I breathe

D
Open-eyed and fast asleep

Asus2
Falling softly as the rain

    Em
No footsteps ringing in your ears

G
Ragged down worn to the skin

D
Warrior raging have no fear
[Chorus]
   A
Secure yourself to heaven

Hold on tight, the night has come

Fasten up your earthly burdens

[Verse 2]
A
Kneeling down with broken prayers

Em
Hearts and bones from days of youth

G
Restless with an angel's wing

  D

   A
No feet to fall, you need no ground

  Em
Allowed to glide right through the sun

  G
Released from circles guarded tight

D
Now we all are chosen ones
[Chorus]
