[Verse]
                          Am                 C
It's empty in the valley of your heart
                          Am                C
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
                             Am
Away from all the fears
                   C                  G   C          F C
And all the faults you've left behind

                               Am                  C
The harvest left no food for you to eat
                             Am                    C
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
                               Am
But I have seen the same
                  C            G      C         F C
I know the shame in your defeat

[Chorus]
      C      F            C
But I will hold on hope
       C          F          C
And I won't let you choke
F                    C                  G
On the noose around your neck

      Am       F                 C
And I'll find strength in pain
       Am    F               C
And I will change my ways
F                  C                  G
I'll know my name as it's called again

Am C Am C Am C G C F C

[Verse]
                    Am                              C
Cause I have other things to fill my time
                           Am                       C
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
                            Am
Now let me at the truth
                    C               G       C     F C
Which will refresh my broken mind

                       Am                        C
So tie me to a post and block my ears
               Am                                                C
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
                        Am
I know my call despite my faults
        C                G            C     F C
And despite my growing fears

[Chorus]
      C       F             C
But I will hold on hope
       C          F           C
And I won't let you choke
F                    C                  G
On the noose around your neck

      Am        F                 C
And I'll find strength in pain
        Am   F                 C
And I will change my ways
F                   C                 G            C
I'll know my name as it's called again

[Verse]
                                 Am                            C
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
                             Am                     C
And see the world hanging upside down
                                 Am
You can understand dependence
                 C             G          C      F C
When you know the maker's hand

[Pre-Chorus]
     C               F          C
So make your siren's call
         C    F           C
And sing all you want
  F            C                    G
I will not hear what you have to say

           Am     F             C
Cause I need freedom now
      Am       F             C
And I need to know how
       F          C             G
To live my life as it's meant to be

Am C Am C Am C G C F C

[Chorus]
      C          F           C
But I will hold on hope
       C          F           C
And I won't let you choke
F                    C              G
On the noose around your neck

       Am       F                 C
And I'll find strength in pain
      Am       F                 C
And I will change my ways
F                  C                 G                C
I'll know my name as it's called again
