Catch me on a better day

Guitar II plays notes in background
Bury me above the clouds
All the way from here [Riff A]

Take away my fear [Riff A]
Hide me in a hollow sound
Happy evermore [Riff A]
Everything I had to give
Gave out long before [Riff A]

Crashing silent broken down
Falling into night [Riff A]

Cut me in or out [Riff A]
Kiss me blind time after time
Take away my doubt [Riff A]
