G              D           C       G
Some says your dreams are a distant road

     C         G                  D     G   
Down which our hearts would like to go

    Em     Bm      C         G
But I have always stayed in place

C               G                D    Dsus4
Under that old illusion that is safe

             G       D          C       G
You said the ship in port is the safer one

         Em          G           D
But it's not the reason it was made

      Em      Bm   C      G
So forgive me if I wander off

       C       G          D
And forgive me more if I just stay
Em D
                          Bm         C
Sing another song for the lost ones

                               Em   D
We're the ones who need it the most

                         Bm       C
Every time you run it'll cost ya'
But it doesn't stop us runnin'
     G      D      C       G
If a coward dies a thousand times

D              C         G     D              
Then there's a graveyard in my head

          Em      Bm        C      G
'Cause it took me years to say the words

     C     G          D         
That you denied even need said
C D
                          Bm         C
Sing another song for the lost ones

                               Em   D
We're the ones who need it the most

                           Bm      C
Nothin' that you fear is forgotten
It follows you around like G G G Em G G G G Em C
G              D          G        Em
Then everything danced to a stranger tune

G                D           G       C
And we found our song and we found our truth

G   D           G                       Em
And now that we know it's that we always knew

G               D              G      C
Farewell to the chains we were born into
G D G Em G D G C
           G               D            G  
And as we danced among the ashes of our arms

              Em
We laughed it off

            G               D                 G
And then we burned our tiny world to find the ocean

       C                      G
Just beyond those paper walls
