I hear the sirens,   more and more in this here town
[Part 1]
G   G/A   G/B  G/D                     Cadd9          Em
Let me catch my breath to breathe and reach across the bed

Just to know we're safe I am a grateful man

This life has been a light and I can see you clear
[Chorus 1]
Am                     C                   G
Have to take your hand, and feel your breath

                 Dm
for fear this someday will be over

Am           C            G
I pull you close, so much to lose

knowing that nothing lasts forever
[Chorus 2]

I didn't care before you were here

                         Dm                 Dm/A
I danced with laughter with the ever after

F               C                       G
But all things change. Let this remain.
[Verse]
C              Cadd9 C                      Am Asus4 Am Asus4
Hear the sirens   covering distance in the night

The sound echoing   closer, will they come for me next time?
[Part 2]
G*                                       Cadd9        Em
For every choice, mistake I've made, it's not my plan

G*                             Cadd9        Am
to send you in the arms of another man

G*                                     Cadd9        Em
And if you choose to stay, I'll wait, I'll understand
[Chorus 3]
Am                C                         G
It's a fragile thing, this life we lead

                  Dm
If I think too much, I can get over-

Am               C                    G
whelmed by the grace by which we live

                   Dm                   Em
our lives with death over our shoulder

F            C                      G
Want you to know that should I go

                     Dm               Em
I always loved you, held you high above too

F              C                       G
I study your face, the fear goes away
[Solo] Em C Am Em C D [Instrumental] C Cadd9 C Am Asus4 Am Asus4 x2 [Chorus 3]
                Dm
The fear goes away

                 F        C
The fear goes away

                G            Dm      F   C   G      Dm          F
The fear goes away.. Aa aa  Aa aa  Aa aa   Aa aa ........
