Chords

[Verse 1]
D
Come by the fire, lay down your head
My love, I see you're growing tired So set the bad day by the bed
           A
And rest a while, your eyes can close

          Bm                            G
You don't have to do a thing but listen to me sing

                    D
I know you miss the world, the one you knew
The one where everything made sense
                                                 A
Because you didn't know the truth, that's how it works

                                  Bm
'Til the bottom drops out and we learn

               G                            G
We're all just hunters seeking solid ground
[Chorus]
D                                             F#m
Don't stop trying to find me here amidst the chaos

                                      Bm
Though I know it's blinding there's a way out

G       A                                     D
Say out loud, we will not give up on love now

                                          F#m
No fear, don't you turn like Orpheus, just stay here

                           Bm          E
Hold me in the dark and when the day appears

       Asus4     A                  D
We'll say we did not give up on love today
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D [Verse 2]
Dsus4         D   Dsus4 D             Dsus4
I'll show you good, restore your faith

            D               Dsus4          D              Dsus4
I'll try and somehow make a meaning of the poison in this place

              A    Asus4             A   Asus4
Convince you, love, don't breathe it in

         Bm                               G
You were written in the stars that we are swimming in

              D    Dsus4     D   Dsus4
And it has no name, no guarantee

              D              Dsus4         D              Dsus4
It's just the promise of a day I know that some may never see

            A    Asus4    A            Asus4
But that's enough, if the bottom drops out

          Bm       G                          G
I hope my love was someone else's solid ground
[Chorus]
D                                             F#m
Don't stop trying to find me here amidst the chaos

                                      Bm
Though I know it's blinding there's a way out

G       A                                     D
Say out loud, we will not give up on love now

                                          F#m
No fear, don't you turn like Orpheus, just stay here

                           Bm          E
Hold me in the dark and when the day appears

       Asus4     A                  D      Dsus4  D  Dsus4
We'll say we did not give up on love today

        G        A                  D   Dsus4  D  Dsus4  D  Dsus4  D
We'll say we did not give up on love today
