  G 
A penny for your thoughts now

Baby looks like the weight
                                  D  
Of the world's on your shoulders now
    G
I know you think you're going crazy
                                                   D
Just when it seems everything's gonna work itself out
                           A
They drive you right back down

                                   G
And you said it ain't fair that a man
              D        A 
Walks when a bird can fly
            G                         D         A 
We have to kick the ground the stars kiss the sky
                G                 D      A 
They say that spirits live a man has to die
       G                            A 
They promised us truth now they're giving us lies

              D 
Gonna take a miracle to save us this time
          G 
And your savior has just left town
              D      
Gonna need a miracle 'cause it's all on the line
       G              
And I won't let you down ( No I won't let you down)
Em 
The river of your hope is flooding
G               A 
And I know the dam is busted
Em 
If you need me I'll come running
G               A           D 
I won't let you down... no, no

        G
You're looking for salvation you thought

That it'd be shining
                 D                   
Like an angel's light
          G
Well, the angels left this nation
                                    D
And salvation caught the last train out tonight
                       A
He lost one hell of a fight

                     G                    D    A
He said I'm just one man, that's all I'll ever be
         G                    D           A
I never can be everything you wanted from me
              G
I've got big plans so big
          D         A                     
That any blind man could see
     G
I'm standing in the river
          A
Now I'm drowning in the sea

             D
Gonna take a miracle to save us this time
          G
And your savior has just left town
              D
Gonna need a miracle

'Cause your heart's on the line
          G
And your heartbeat is slowing down
Em
Your feet are grounded still
        G           A
You're reaching for the sky
Em
You can let 'em clip your wings
            G              A            
'Cause I believe that you can fly

[Solo] D  G  D  G  A

         G
Well my eyes have seen the horror
        D              A
Of the coming of the flood
             G
I've driven deep the thorny crown
          D          A
Into the soul of someone's son
             G                              
Still I'll look you in the eye
               D                 A
'Cause I've believed in things I've thought
          G
And I'll die without regret
         A
For the wars that I have fought

              D
Gonna take a miracle to save you this time
          G
And your savior has just left town
              D
Gonna need a miracle

'Cause your heart's doing time
          G
And your conscience is calling you out
Em
It ain't all for nothing
             G         A
Life ain't written in the sand
Em
I know the tide is coming
          G               A
But it's time we made a stand

        D 
With a miracle
              G 
Gonna take a miracle
         D 
I need a miracle
         G 
I need a miracle
