Set Ourselves Free

C F C C Am F C C

[Verse 1]
     C                F                 C
Well everyone's got something they're afraid of
     Am         F              C
And my dear I fear I'm losing you
     C                   F                C
But don't think I won't be there if you need me
             Am         F         C
It's just sometimes I get scared too
        C            F              C
And I know that my fears they are unfounded.
           Am                F               C
It's just this thing that builds inside my brain
   C              F                C
If I could just remember what you told me
            Am            F                        C
You said, "Fear leads to shame and you're not to blame."

But now as we go
          F          C
Down this long dark road
                F         Am      G
We'll keep our eyes fixed on one another
          F         C
With your hands in mine
          F           C
And some trust and a smile
             F                  Am              G
We'll know there's no hill too big for us to climb

  Woooo!

[Verse 2]
         C             F                Am           G
So we'll reach for the stars, but if we land on the moon
         C              F               Am            G
It's all right cause we know we did the best we could do
       C             F        Am        G       C
No regrets, don't forget that sometimes life is hard
            C           F             Am           G
I felt like shit when I left and you wanted me to stay
            C              F                 Am          G
But I felt good when I was broke, because I gave it all away.
         C              F
Oh it's weird and it's strange
         Am               G              C  F Am G
But it's nice when things work out that way.

[Chorus 1]
       C
So we fight
          F                      Am         G
With our heads held high and we won't back down
           C
From these wars in this world,
            F
From these wars in our souls,
         Am       G
We just have to believe
                  C
We set ourselves free.

[Verse 3]
         C            F               Am     G
I looked down on the graves from the MARTA train
         C             F          Am        G
And I wondered if anybody really ever gets saved
           C            F               Am        G                    C
Or is it just something people tell themselves to make it through the day
         C               F            Am       G
But just know that everything is gonna be all right
C            F          Am     G
Death is too hard to conceptualize.
         C           F             Am             G                C
I think we save ourselves when we laugh with our friends, when we cry.

[Chorus 2]
       C
So we fight
          F                      Am         G
With our heads held high and we won't back down
           C
From these wars in this world,
            F
From these wars in our souls,
         Am       G
We just have to believe
                  C
We set ourselves free.
