G        	              Em
Pound for pound and cheek to cheek, cheek paler than a lamp light

G             Em         G                             Em
    and turn this, darkness, into light, and then I'll turn too bright, forget all the hype

D                                   A
I'll need heart and you'll need courage, We all need...

G                              Em
Toe to toe, there's nowhere to go, so I’m tiptoeing around it
G                              Em
I held you down and I held my own, and now I feel like I’m floating

G	       Em         G	     Em
   So turn to this, head on and keep on, keeping on

D                                     A
and I’ll need heart and you’ll need courage
             C
We all need time
               D               C
So let’s make time... work for us

G                        Em
Don’t you know, nobody knows, is there somebody waiting?
G                                                Em
So you’ll hold yourself up and you hold yourself in and then pray that you are growing

G                Em         G                                 
          Em
    and turn to this, darkness, you turn it into light, and then you'll turn too bright, 
all the hype

D                                      A
And I’ll need heart and you’ll need courage
             C
