F                        Am 
Know this, it's a universal truth 
C            (C/E)   F          (C/E) 
People let you down 
F                             Am 
So reach out for the things that you can use 
C             (C/E)        F      
Buried in the ground 


F 
I think I've been misunderstood 
Am                                  C 
Not all my choices have been good 
                 F 
In the fading light 
F                                  Am 
So we should put this one to bed 
                                C 
Before it bursts out of my head 
                 F 
Ready for the fight 

Dm 
When it gets too late 
F                          Am 
And I find my place 
                        C                              Dm 
Who will save your soul and love me here

Well let down your guard

Who will save your soul and love me here 

F       Am        C         F 

Am               C 
Inside of another tiny life 
C               F 
Full of big ideas 
F                            Am 
It strikes me with the baggage left behind 
C                          F 
I could dry those tears 


F                               Am 
All of my secrets they are free 
                                      C 
Now watch them tumble out of me 
                  F 
Into better days 
F                             Am 
So save those homiletic tones 
                                        C 
And conjure singing from the moans 
                        F 
And you'll hear me say 


Dm 
When it gets too late 
F                         Am 
And I find my place

Who will save your soul and love me here 
Dm               F

F                             Am 
So step away from castle walls 
                                   C 
Those voices calling in the halls 
                     F 
They are moving on 
F                               Am 
So I'll keep my side of the street 
                                            C 
Cleaner than where our pounding feet 
                 F 
Ever walked upon 


Dm 
When it gets too late 
F                        Am 
And I find my place 
                    C                         Dm 
Who will save your soul and love me here 
Dm               F 
When it gets too far 
F                          Am 
Well let down your guard 
Am                  C                       F 
Who will save your soul and love me here
