Tom: Eb
Gm
Hanging by threads of palest silver
I could have stayed that way forever
Bad blood and ghosts wrapped tight around me
Nothing could ever seem to touch me
D# Cm
I lose what I love most
D# Cm
Did you know I was lost until you found me
Gm D#5
Stroke of luck or gift from God?
Gm D#5
The hand of fate or devil's claws?
Gm D#5
>From below or saints above?
Gm D#5
You came to me
Gm D#5
Here comes the cold again
Gm D#5
I feel it closing in
Gm D#5
It's falling down and all around me, falling
Gm
You say that you'll be there to catch me
Or will you only try to trap me
D# Cm
These are the rules I make
D# Cm
Our chains were meant to break
You'll never change me
Gm D#5
Here comes the cold again
Gm D#5
I feel it closing in
Gm D#5
You're falling down and all around me, falling
Gm D#5
Stroke of luck or gift from God?
Gm D#5
The hand of fate or devil's claws?
