Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

The lights go out all around me.

  One last candle to keep out the night.

And then the darkness surrounds me.

 I know I'm alive, but I feel like I've died.

Verse 2

And all that's left is to accept that it's over.

My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made.

I try to keep warm but I just grow colder.

I feel like I'm slipping away.

Chorus

After all this has passed, I still will remain.

After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain.

Though it won't be today, someday I'll hope again,

  And there'll be beauty from pain.

You will bring beauty from my pain

Verse 3

My whole world is the pain inside me

The best I can do is just get through the day

When life before is only a memory

I wonder why God lets me walk through this place

Verse 4

And though I can't understand why this happened

I know that I will when I look back someday

And see how you've brought beauty from ashes

And made me as gold purified through these flames

Chorus x1

Bridge

Here I am at the end of me

Trying to hold to what I can't see

 I forgot how to hope

 This night's been so long

 I cling to your promise

 There will be a dawn

Chorus x1
