Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight, the night has come

 Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

Instrumental

 In the ink of an eye I saw you bleed, through the thunder I could hear

you scream

Solid to the air I breathe, open-eyed and fast asleep

 Falling softly as the rain, no footsteps ringing in your ears

Ragged down worn to the skin, warrior raging, have no fear

 Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight, the night has come

 Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

I'm kneeling down with broken prayers, hearts and bones from days of youth

Restless with an angel's wing, I dig a grave to bury you

No feet to fall, you need no ground, allowed to glide right through the sun

Released from circles guarded tight, now we all are chosen ones

 Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight, the night has come

 Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

  [hold] [hold]

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight, the night has come

Falling softly as the rain, no footsteps ringing in your ears

Ragged down worn to the skin, warrior raging, have no fear

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight, the night has come

Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight, the night has come
