She's alone tonight,

           G*
With a bitter cup and,

Dsus    G*        Bm*
She's undone tonight,

              G*
She's all used up,

           Em7     D/F#      G
She's been staring down the demons,

             Em7             D/F#   G    Asus    Bm*
Who've been screaming she's just another so and so,

           Asus    A
Another so and so

         D     D/F#
You are golden,

        G         Asus
You are golden, Child

You are golden,

Don't let go

     Asus           Dsus
Don't let go tonight

D         G         Bm         G
There's a fear that burns like trash inside

D        G          Bm               G
And your shame, the curse that burns your eyes

           Em     D/F#   G
You'v been hiding in the bedroom,

Asus   Em         D/F#    G     Asus      Bm
Hoping this isn't how the story has to go

G                      Asus
It's not the way it goes, it's your book now

         D     D/F#
You are golden,

        G         Asus
You are golden, Child

You are golden,

          G
Don't let go

     Asus           Dsus
Don't let go tonight

Bm               G                         Bm
You're a lonely soul, in a wreck of broken hearts

                G          Asus                Dsus
You're far from home, is a perfect place to start

Dsus    D/F#      G      A
        La-la-la-la-la-la-la      (repeat)

Dsus    G*     Bm*       G*           Dsus
So this final verse is a contradiction

          G*           Bm*         G*
And the more we learn, the less we know

            Em7      D/F#    G
We've been talking about a feeling

        Em7     D/F#       G        Asus      Bm*
We both know inside but couldn't find the words

     G             Bm*
I couldn't write this verse

     G                       Asus
I've seldom been so sure

          A
About anything before

         D     D/F#
You are golden,

        G         Asus
You are golden, Child

         D     D/F#
You are golden,

          G
Don't let go

     Asus           Dsus
Don't let go tonight

Dsus         D/F#              G
This world is a dead man down

                Asus                 Dsus
Every breath is a singing crown away

             D/F#           G
Like some de-bilitated king

      Asus
Don't let go tonight

Dsus            D/F#                 G
Earth spins and the mood goes round'

                     Asus
The Green comes from the frozen ground,

        Dsus            D/F#          G
And now ev'rything will be made new a-gain

     Asus               Dsus
Like freedom and spring

     D/F#               G
Like freedom and spring,

     Asus               Bm7
Like freedom and spring
