[Intro]
G* Am*
There are three ways to see despair
G* Am*
I've seen them all, I'm scared to say
G* Am*
The three ways are real I've lived through them all
Em* Am*
The fourth way is coming, so prepare for the fall

[Verse]
Em
Can you save someone from the hidden depths
F#
Of a darkened soul with no hope left
F
And I don't know how and I don't know when
E
But I pray that you'll be beautiful again
Em
Can you save someone from the hidden depths
F#
Of a darkened soul with no hope left
F
And I don't know how, I don't know when
E
But I pray that you'll be beautiful again

[Instrumental]
Em F# F
F E
But I pray that you'll be beautiful again

[Instrumental]
Em F#
F
And I don't know how and I don't know when
E
But I pray that you'll be beautiful again

[Refrain]

For this bit, if you're doing solo acoustic, it may sound better to do one

loud chord and then very light

strumming in the background instead of just a single strum.
G* Am*
I am as tired as John Lennon sang
G* Am*
Conveying exhaustion like no-one else can
G* Am*
I'm no longer the centre of the universe
Em* Am*
A bare admission that makes it seem worse
Em Am
A bare admission that makes it seem worse
Em Am
A bare admission that makes it seem worse
