[Intro]
Em
How can you be sleeping, waves like weapons crash
Em
O'er us, cry for mercy and hold fast hope

Em [8 measures]

[Verse]
Em           D                        C
Who of us is cursed, or do we have to ask
                      Am   G   Em
Search your souls and hold fast
Em                 D                          C
If no one speaks a word, then let the lots be cast
                  Am   Bm
Truth be told and hold fast


[Pre-Chorus]
E6                                Fmaj7
White death wakes in black skies, mark your maker's wrath

Cmaj7
Fear and flames of azure climb the crooked mast
E6                        Fmaj7
You will yet be baptized, steeped in shattered glass
Cmaj7
Sink and sing your answer and hold fast hope

[Chorus]
Em                             D        C                       Am     G
      As strong arms grip your shoulders like dead hands of the past
Em                          D    C                          Am    Bm
      Pray as you're tossed over, this breath could be your last

[Bridge]
E6        Fmaj7    Cmaj7
          Quiet and cold,
E6   Fmaj7       Cmaj7
siiiilent and    slow
E6      Fmaj7      Cmaj7
Niiight black as    coal,
E6      Fmaj7      Cmaj7

[2nd Bridge]
Em
Find your faith and dive deep, through living gateways pass
Em
Lined with death and ivory, and hold fast, hold fast

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                           D
Deep beneath the black dawn, leagues from lightning's flash
C                          Am              G
Ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning mass
Em                           D
Steel yourself in sackcloth, roll your heart in ash
C                                    Am   Bm   E6
Scrape your skin with steel wool and hold fast hope

[Chorus]
E6              Fmaj7     Cmaj7                 E6
Ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning mass
E6                    Fmaj7         Cmaj7
Scrape your skin with steel wool
Cmaj7                Cmaj7
Cross your heart and hold fast hope
Cmaj7           Cmaj7
Hold fast hope. Hold fast hope.
