[Intro] Amaj7 E Amaj7 E Amaj7 E Amaj7 E [Verse 1]
E        C#m7         Amaj7   E
Just how much does it have to hurt

E          Amaj7      B
Before you let go the pain

B            C#m7         A       E
And just how deep does it have to be

E          A           B
Before you yearn to be free again?

B     C#m7     Amaj7     E
Every word can lock you away

E                       Amaj7       B
You can walk or you can choose to remain

B        C#m7    A        E
But everyday can pass you by

E              Amaj7       B
While you were holding the key
[Chorus]
E       Bm     C#
This is how it turns

E       Bm      C#
This is what we do

E       E7     Amaj7
This is who we are

           A                 E
When we forgive, we can move on

B               Amaj     E  B
Release all the shackles one by one

Amaj7            A                 E
We belong to the burden until it's gone
[Verse 2]
E        C#m7        Amaj7   E
Just how long do you want to hate

E             Amaj7    B
With all that anger to burn

B            C#m7             A        E
You dream of revenge, and you dream of reply

E               Amaj7        B
You'd hope that someday we'd learn

B     C#m7     Amaj7         E
Every time you think of that hurt

E        Amaj7          B
It spins around in your mind

B       C#m7            A         E
With an eye for an eye, again and again

E         Amaj7          B
Until the whole world is blind
[Chorus]
E       Bm     C#
This is how it turns

E       Bm      C#
This is what we do

E       E7     Amaj7
This is who we are

           A                 E
When we forgive, we can move on

B               Amaj7           E  B
Release all the shackles one by one

Amaj7            A                 E
We belong to the burden until it's gone
[Bridge]
Amaj7       E
Yeah, yeah, yeah

C#m7           A   E B
Lay the burden down

A                         E   B
I'm gonna lay the weapons down

A              E   B
Lay the burden down

A                          E
And it's William Blake who inks his sting

B                         E
Drawing out Martin Luther King

A          E     B                  C#m7
Tutu and Madiba, saying rainbows do exist

A                E      B                  C#m7
The voice of the Elders coming through the mist

A              E
Lay the burden down

B               C#m7
Lay the weapons down

A              E
Lay the burden down

B               C#m7
Lay the weapons down

To be brave enough to listen, to live and let live

A        E
