[Intro] D  E  A  A
        D  E  A  A

D               E              A
Hands, put your empty hands in mine
    D              E              
And scars, show me all the scars 
   F#m
you hide
    D            E
And hey, if your wings are broken
A           E       F#m       E
Please take mine so yours can 
     D
open too
      E                  A
Cause I'm gonna stand by you
    D              E              
Oh, tears make kaleidoscopes in 
   A
your eyes
    D                   E         
And hurt, I know you're hurting, 
        F#m
but so am I
    D             E
And love, if your wings are broken
A      E       F#m       E    D
Borrow mine so yours can open too
E                         A
Cause I'm gonna stand by you

 A                                 
Even if we're breaking down, we can
                    F#m
 find a way to break through
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll 
                       D
walk through Hell with you
                  E              
Love, you're not alone, cause I'm 
                A
gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'm 
               F#m
gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll 
                       D
walk through Hell with you

                  E              
Love, you're not alone, cause I'm 
                D
gonna stand by you

 D           E                 A
Yeah, you're all I never knew I 
needed
        D                E  
And the heart, sometimes it's 
                   F#m
unclear why it's beating
    D             E
And love, if your wings are broken
A      E             F#m    E  
We can brave through those 
     D
emotions too
      E                  A
Cause I'm gonna stand by you
    D              E              
Oh, truth, I guess truth is what 
     A
you believe in
    D              E              
And faith, I think faith is 
     F#m
helping to reason
            D             E
No, no, no, love, if your wings are 
broken
A      E       F#m       E    D
Borrow mine so yours can open too
E*                       A
Cause I'm gonna stand by you

A

walk through Hell with you
                   E             
Love, you're not alone, cause I'm 
                A

Love, you're not alone, cause I'm 
                F#m
gonna stand by you

             C#m                   
I'll be your eyes when yours can't 
D
shine
             A                 
I'll be your arms, I'll be your 
 E           F#m
steady satellite
                   C#m             
And when you can't rise, well, I'll
 D
 cry with you on hands and knees
Cause I...
                    A
(I'm gonna stand by you)

Even if we're breaking down, we can 
                    F#m
find a way to break through (come 
on)
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll 
                       D
walk through Hell with you
                  E              
Love, you're not alone, cause I'm

 E                     A     
(Even if we can't find heaven, 
          D
heaven, heaven)
 E                 A
I'm gonna stand by you
