Am
I

                                  G  Fmaj7 C
I can't promise you that I won't let you down

    Am
And I

                                       G   Fmaj7  C
I can't promise you that I will be the only one around

          G    Fmaj7  C
When your hope falls down

          Am
But we're young

                                         G  Fmaj7  C
Open flowers in the windy fields of this war-torn world

    Am
And love

                                        G     Fmaj7  C         G  Fmaj7  C
This city breathes the plague of loving things more than their  cre-at-ors

[Verse]
      Am
I ran away

                                    G  Fmaj7  C
I could not take the burden of both me and you

           Am
It was too fast

                                           G    Fmaj7  C
Casting love on me as if it were a spell I could not break

              G       Fmaj7      C
When it was a promise I could not make
[Pre-chorus]
            Am  C  G
But what if I was wrong?

          Am  C  G
O what if I was wrong?
[Chorus]
    Am   G     C                Am   G    C
But hold on to what you believe in the light

         Am       G   C                        C2
When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

    Am   G     C                Am   G    C
But hold on to what you believe in the light

         Am       G   C                        C2
When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

(little riff interlude - play tabbed way round then play in reverse then play 
 tabbed way round - listen to recording you'll get the timing)

             Am
And now this land

                                                G     Fmaj7  C
Means less and less to me without you breathing through its trees

         Am
At every turn

                                    G   Fmaj7   C
The water runs away from me and the halo dis-appears

                   G     Fmaj7  C
I'm not whole when you're not near
[Pre-chorus]
           Am C  G
So what if I was wrong?

          Am  C  G
O what if I was wrong?

          Am  C  G
O what if I was wrong?
[Chorus]
    Am   G     C                Am   G    C
But hold on to what you believe in the light

         Am       G   C                        C2
When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

    Am   G     C                Am   G    C
But hold on to what you believe in the light

         Am       G   C                        C2
When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight
[Interlude] (x2) Am G Am C Am G Am C Am G Am C G [Chorus] (one strum)
        Am    G          C     Am  G   C
So hold on to what you believed in the light
