E
Hold my tongue there's nothing I can say to you
A
You tie me up with words
B
You tie me up with words
I'm so lost you say that you'd pray for me
You'd smother me with words
You'd smother me with words
E A E
They turned your story all around
They had you free when you were bound
They raised you up when you were down
B
They raised you high
E A B
I believe someone's watching over me
I believe in the dreams that set you free
You're so strong it really is a mystery
You give your power away
You give your power away
Why be a song when you can a symphony
Don't give your power away
Don't give your power away
I believe
I believe we are free to be chained
To be slaves, to be chained or to be free
I believe someone's watching over me
I believe in the dreams that set you free
I believe
There we are. It's not quite a simple to sing, however!
