Gm

[Verse 1]
Gm
Heaven knows all the ways
               Bb
 I've tried to hold you
Cm
Heaven knows all the times
              Eb
 I pushed you away
Gm
And I loved you with every
           Bb
bone in my body
Cm
It's keeping me from the soul
                Eb
I wish I could save

[Pre-Chorus]
Eb             F
And it hits me harder
    Gm                F
The sky is a howling thunder
Eb
You are still that voice
           F
inside my head

[Chorus]
         Gm             D
When I'm lost, when I'm weak
         Bb         Cm
When I'm down on my knees
         Gm             D
When I'm crushed to the core
     Bb         Cm
It's you I look for
         Gm            D
When I'm burnt to the ground
        Bb             Cm
And the ash is raining down
        Gm                D
And the wolves are at my door
     Bb         Cm
It's you I look for
[Post-Chorus]
Gm  D
Woo-ooo
Bb  Cm
Woo-ooo
Gm  D
Woo-ooo
Bb  Cm
Woo-lves

[Verse 2]
Gm
Heaven knows all the hell
                 Bb
we gave to each other (Oh)
Cm
We'd fight till the fire burnt
               Eb
bright in our veins
 (Fire burnt bright in our veins)
Gm
God knows we're just as sick
         Bb
 as each other (Oh)
Cm
And I hope that we'll
       Eb
 never change

me lonely, ooh
