VERSE:
A                       D
There’s a burden in my hand, and its giving me only
E
empty promises.
A                        D
There’s a shadow from the sun, and its very very cold
E
yes its very very cold.
A                               D
There’s a soilder, seeking wisdon, with one hand on his
E
weapon and the other in the air.
A                     D
With desire, on the run, is there anyway to see, anyway
E
to see?

CHORUS:
A                          D
Give me faith, give me hope, give me a way that I can
E             A
cope, with all the missery thats going on in the air.
A                         D
Give me joy, give me peace, give me a way I’ll ever 
E              A
need. Won’t you take me to a place far from here?

REPEAT INTRO SOLO AND CHORDS, REPEAT VERSE RIFT FOR VERSE 2:
There is laughter to be found, but it seems to slip away in a memory.
There’s a cancer: complancency, and you want to bring me down, you want
to bring me down.
But I fight my desire, with more than empty promises and tears in my eyes.
I will follow till the end, if only I could see, if only I could see...

BRIDGE:
A            E          D                  A
And you come, as a hero, and lay down your life for my 

own.
A            E          D                   A
And you give, give me a freedome, like I have never
