[Verse 1]
       G
Oohh I Came out of the gutter
C      G
Wide open range
Em
Part of me shuddered
D
Part of me swayed
  G
I walked to the end
C        G
Gave you my hand
   Em                     D
My blood, my sweat and my tears

[Chorus]
Em
Cover me gently
     C      D
Well I'll never leave
Em
Silent and empty
      C    D
Where I cannot see
   G
No Cracks of light
