Em   F#m   G    Bm         D
Take my  sword from the slaughter

Em   F#m  G   Bm    D
Melt it  down into vapor

             (Em)
And my armor too
[Instrumental] | Em | Em | Em | Em | [Verse 2]
   Em  F#m   G    Bm        D
I hear hot blood flap and flutter

 Em  F#m   G  Bm       D
From your temple to shoulder

          (Em)
And all through you
[Instrumental] | Em | Em | Em | Em | [Pre-Chorus]
          D                       C
When you hold on to me, it isn't easy

          D                        C
When you hold on to me, it isn't fair

           D
But when there's no key
[Chorus]
C                    G
Oh-oh, you find me there

Find me there, find me there

A#    A    G
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Instrumental] | A# | A | G | G | Em | Em | | Em | Em | Em | Em | [Verse 3]
    Em  F#m    G         Bm        D
I'm tur-ning white, I'm leaves of paper

Em   F#m   G     Bm        D
Turn my   hands from this labor

              (Em)
And lift me through
[Instrumental] | Em | Em | Em | Em | [Pre-Chorus]
          D                     C
When you hold onto me it isn't easy,

                D                        C
But you should hold on to me, it isn't fair,

           D
But when there's no key
[Chorus]
C                    G
Oh-oh, you find me there

          D              C
Find me there, find me there

A#    A    G
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Instrumental] | A# | A | G | G | | A# | A | G | G | [Verse 4]
    A#              A
The kids get lost, lambs out wandering

 G
Bigger, blacker things come calling

 A#             A
From outside a tiny garden

 G
Somebody once laid their hearts on

    A#                  A
And kids get lost, and kids get broken

 G
Diaries get found and opened

      A#               A
Their legs get led astray

               G
And then they lie inside some secret place

           A#              A
Where the sun looks in the open ceiling

 G
Kids grow up and kids stop feeling

A#               A                G
Kids, and feel adults, and face away

            (A#)
La-la da-da,    da
[Instrumental] | A# | A | G | G | | A# | A | G | G | [Verse 5]
        A#
 But in last love dreams,

      A                  G
 The lost and passed out of this world are softly sighing

  A#          A                    G
 Trying to decide if they should leave the things that keep them crying

     A#                  A                  G
 And some will rise and keep on living with open eyes, with minds forgiven

     A#              A           G
 The river's flowing is arrested and resumed after they've blessed it

 A#                A                  G
 Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again

 A#                A                  G
 Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again

 A#                A                  G
 Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again

 A#                A                  G
(Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again)
[Outro]
       (A#)
 It's over

 A#                A                  G
(Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again)

     (A#)
 It's over

 A#                A                  G
(Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again)

       (A#)
 It's over

 A#                A                  G
(Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again)

       (A#)
 It's over

 A#                A                  G
(Over and over and over, and over and over and over, and over again)
