-believe That's the top

And I know your heart
   D
is hemorrhaging You
                  A
need some time to heal
And now the traffic
             E
lights there on your
street flash yellow
        F#m
all the time
And the mirror in
    D
the bathroom
It looks cracked
in the wrong-

-light But walk out
D
through your threshold
A   
Through your lungs and
E                 D
move on down the stairs
F#m            E
   And let the things you
          D
love come back to you in
A                  Bm   E
time we'll all get there
