[Intro]
| Am | Fmaj7/A | C | Em |
| Am | Fmaj7/A | C | Em |

[Verse 1]
Am Fmaj7/A
Last night I dreamed of icy cliffs, standing on the precipice
C Em
I leaned to see just where the edge would take me
Am Fmaj7/A
The wind came up, I closed my eyes, I heard a shout and to my surprise
C Em
a hand reached out and pulled me back to safety.

[Chorus 1]
F** G** Em** Am**
What's a hand, what's a dream? Who can say what it means?
Fmaj7 C
When everything that you know can disappear.
F** G** Esus4* E* Am**
Don't look back, the spirits cry, just be glad to be alive.
Fmaj7 C
Everything that you love is right here,
Fmaj7
everything that you love.

[Interlude]
| Am | Fmaj7/A | C | Em |

[Verse 2]
Am Fmaj7/A
Life feels smaller than this stone, worn smooth inside my palm,
C Em
I keep it like a charm inside my pocket.
Am Fmaj7/A
I keep thinking I'll flame out, leave no one with a doubt,
C Em
that I was meant to fire like a rocket.

[Chorus 2]
F** G** Em** Am**
What's a stone, what's a flame, there's always someone else to blame,
Fmaj7 C
when everything that you know disappears?
