Bm
There's a story in your eyes
I can see the hurt behind your smile
For every sign I recognize
Another one escapes me
Let me know what plagues your mind
Let me be the one to know you best
Be the one to hold you up
When you feel like you're sinking
G Em
Tell me once again
Bm
What's beneath the pain you're feeling
G F#m
Don't abandon me
A
Or think you can't be saved
Reff :
D A
I walk beside you
Bm
Wherever you are
G
Whatever it takes
D
No matter how far
A#
Through all that may come
Bm
And all that may go
G
I walk beside you
Bm
I walk beside you
Introlude:
Bm
Bm
Summon up your ghosts for me
Rest your tired thoughts upon my hands
Step inside this sacred place
When all your dreams seem broken
Resonate inside this temple
Let me be the one who understands
Be the one to carry you
When you can walk no further
G Em
Tell me once again
Bm
What's below the surface bleeding
G F#m
If you've lost your way
A
I will take you there
Reff :
D A
I walk beside you

Wherever you are

Whatever it takes

No matter how far

And all that may go

I walk beside you
I walk beside you
Coda :

O..o..oh, where everything is wrong
D
O..o..oh, where hopelessness surrounds you
A G
O..o..oh, the sun will rise again

The tide you swim against
F E
Will carry you back home

So don't give up
don't give in
