[Verse 1]
G5 F#5 F5 A legacy, so far removed, E5 One day will be improved. G5 F#5 F5 Eternal rights we left behind, E5 We were the better kind. G5 F#5 F5 Two the same, set free too, E5 G5 F5 I always looked to you, E5 G5 F5 I always looked to you, E5 I always looked to you.
[Verse 2]
G5 F5 We fought for good, stood side by side, E5 Our friendship never died. G5 F#5 F5 On stranger waves, the lows and highs, E5 Our vision touched the sky. G5 F#5 F5 Immortalists with points to prove, E5 G5 F#5 F5 I put my trust in you, E5 G5 F5 I put my trust in you, E5 G5 F5 I put my trust in you!

[Verse 3]
G5 F#5 F5 A house somewhere on foreign soil, E5 Where aging lovers call. G5 F#5 F5 Is this your goal, your final needs E5 Where dogs and vultures eat? G5 F#5 F5 Committed still, I turn to go, E5 G5 F5 I put my trust in you, E5 G5 F5 I put my trust in you, E5 G5 F5 I put my trust in you!
[Outro]
E5 I put my trust in you! G5 F5 E5 In you, in you, in you. G5 F5 E5 Put my trust in you, in you.
