As recorded by the Poets Of The Fall (From the 2012 Album TEMPLE OF THOUGHT) [Intro] Dm Bb A [Verse 1]
                  Dm                 C
He stares out the window, blank as a canvas

               Bb           A
Made up in the sunlight and swirling smoke and ash

               Dm                     C
He waits for a breath now, taking his time

   Dm          Bb        A
He sees an eternity in a blink of an eye
[Pre-Chorus 1]
        Bb                       Gm       A
And for him this life is made of time and choices

                     Bb                         Gm
And endless blend of vistas painted bright with memories

         A            Bb                           C
The here and now will bow to him to only serve one purpose

             Dm
To keep your peace
[Chorus]
Gm                             C
He takes on the world all in a stride

                            Dm
And your wounds will be his scars

                               G
So won't you remember when the night comes

                       Bb
He will need your open arms

            A                       Dm
For to be invincible, he needs your love
[Guitar Solo] Dm Bb A [Verse 2]
          Dm                                    
He stands in the doorway, quiet like yesterday

Bb                                        
With forgotten thoughts become a mystery

               A           
And nightmares locked away

              Dm                                        
He looks like a gunman, but his view is much too wide

           Bb                               A                     
For such a solution, so he fights without a six gun on his side
[Pre-Chorus 2]
    Bb                      Gm             A           
And all the while his stars and moon shine brightly

                   Bb               Gm                  
Outside the desert wails a curse of rage and jealousy

    A                  Bb                            C         
And yet tomorrow comes along and shifts to serve his purpose

             Dm     
To keep your peace
[Chorus]
Gm                             C        
He takes on the world all in a stride

                            Dm     
And your wounds will be his scars

                               G           
So won't you remember when the night comes

                       Bb    
He will need your open arms

            E        A              Dm         
For to be invincible, he needs your love

Gm                             C                                     
He takes on the world all in a stride

                            Dm     
And your wounds will be his scars

                                     G           
So won't you remember when the night comes

                       Bb    
He will need your open arms

            A                       Dm     
For to be invincible, he needs your love
[Guitar Solo] Dm Bb A Dm Bb A Gm F Gm Eb D A [Outro]
A                              D                                     
He takes on the world all in a stride

                            Em     
And your wounds will be his scars

                               A           
So won't you remember when the night comes

                        C    
He will need your open arms

            F#m                     Em   A  C  
For to be invincible, he needs your love

            B                       Em   
For to be invincible, he needs your love
