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

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

Chorus:
F F C7 C7* F F
But I will hold on hope
F F C7 C7* F F
And I won't let you choke
Bb Bb* F F C C
On the noose around your neck

Dm Dm C7 C7* F F
And I'll find strength in pain
Dm Dm C7 C7* F F
And I will change my ways
C7 C7* F F C C
I'll know my name as it's called again

Verse 2:
Dm Dm F F
'Cause I have other things to fill my time
Dm Dm F F
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Dm Dm
Now let me at the truth
F F C C F F C7 C7* F F
Which will refresh my broken mind

Dm Dm F F
So tie me to a post and block my ears
Dm Dm F F
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
Dm Dm
I know my call despite my faults
F F C C F F C7 C7* F F
And despite my growing fears

Repeat Chorus: (miss out post-chorus fill,
end on an F F and let ring )


Verse 3:
Dm Dm F F
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
Dm Dm F F
And see the world hanging upside down
Dm Dm
You can understand dependence
F F C C F F C7 C7* F F
When you know the maker's hand

F F C7 C7* F F
So make your siren's call
F F C7 C7* F F
And sing all you want
C7 C7* F F C C
I will not hear what you have to say

Dm Dm C7 C7* F F
Cause I need freedom now
Dm Dm C7 C7* F F
And I need to know how
C7 C7* F F C C
To live my life as it's meant to be

I will hold on hope

And I won't let you choke
C7 C7* F F C C
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain

And I will change my ways

I'll know my name as it's called again
