On the CD, it is played with no capo. But for me to sing it, I play it in Capo 3 since I
have a high range. You could also play it in the key of C if you would like it lower.

Verse 1:
G
Like a cannon ball to my chest
Em
Her words ripped me in two
D
I wished her all of the best
C2
And she wished me the truth

So what am I supposed to do?

Now that I've lost all I've known

The heavy heart that's inside of me
C2
Is sinking like a stone
D
Sinking like a stone
Chorus:

I need to be carried

Save me

Bring your sweet redemption

Verse 2:
Like a soldier going off to war
It hurt to let him go
I did what needed to be done
But now I'm feeling so alone
We built a home out of sand
But the tide kept coming strong
Looking back at calloused hands
I can only stand so long
Now all my hope is gone
Chorus
G
Save me
Em
Save me
D
I need more than just a hand to hold
C2
I need to be carried
G
Save me
Em
Save me
D
Bring your sweet redemption
C2 D G
and promise promise to never leave
G
You are the place where I belong
Em
I'll never know where I went wrong
D
Forever I am holding on
C2 D
to the hope of you
C2 D G
The hope of you
G
Save me
(won't you save me?)
Em
Save me
D
I need more than just a hand to hold
C2 D
I need to be carried
G
Save me
Em
Save me
D
Bring your sweet redemption
C2 D
and promise promise to never leave
C2 D G
Oh promise promise to never leave
