[Primeira Parte]
D#m Fm B A# G#m
We had it all, let it fall, the favor and the fortune
F# B A#
With another craving for distortion
D#m F#
By the day we find a way
B A#
Birds of a feather, they fly together
G#m
And I see 'em soaring
F#m B A#
From this boring cage, hmm
[Pré-Refrão]
D#m C#m B
But to break free has only been a dream
A# G#m
It's taking away all of my energy
F# B A#
I need a light to see so I can finally breathe
D#m
I gotta find the key
[Refrão]
F# B
I've been searching for a peace of mind
A# G#m
Pride and certainty in truth I find
F# B
The soul is cold when the river's empty
A#
So tell me
D#m F# B
These empty bones are dead inside
A# G#m
Only hope keeps us alive
F# B A#
The road is old and it's never ending
G#m F# B
These empty bones are dead inside
G#m
Only hope keeps us alive
F# B A#
But the soul is gold when the heart is healthy

C# B
See, all this drinking got me thirsty
A# G#m7
I feel me breaking, I can't escape it
F# B B7M A#7 D#m
I can't take the shame of mercy, hmm
B7M
But I'll follow what I'm searchin'
A#7 G#m G#m7 F#
'Cause maybe it's suitable for moving on
B A#7
And working through the hurting

[Terceira Parte]
D#m
She paid her dues, she played those broken blues
B A#
Etta James, and her name came from the very same truth
G#m7 F#
Skip the youth, now it's things to do
B
Now it's cleaning up after you
A# G#m
And that's the music she sings to (It's hallelujah)
F# B
You know better than to walk in with all the sin you're holding in
A# G#m
They said to leave it at the door, they said pain no more
F#
She said, "But I got somethin' I'm fighting for
B A#
What you mean pain no more?" Play the chord
G#m F#
Melodies playing her like chess
B
She's taking deep breaths
She takes a beating to the chest
G#m
And there's no finessing this stress
F#m
Demons try to tell her what's next
B A#
She says, "I just want you to be blessed, blessed"
