[Verse 1]
     G*
Busy working, busy avoiding,
G*
  there’s something in it, I’m not 
entertaining.
You want to turn the earth 
G*
backwards. Why? And who made it?
G*
Time is not what I thought it would 
be.

[Chorus]
                        G*      
I will try to hold this   if you 
                          G*
don’t see where hope is.

                           G       
Your hero is not dead just sleeping
                     A
 behind the bars you cling to.
                         Bm      
On days you’d like to dismiss the 
                E
ones I like to sing to.
               G      D           
From dark into bliss,   from dark 
     A      E
into bliss,   your hero is not 
[Interlude] dead.

[Bridge]
          G       F#m  A    
If you’re hurting        while 
             G
they’re anointing again
G*
  and nothing mattered but the box 
explaining.
                     G         A  
I want to tell you I love you,   
         D                       A
no one to see through, nothing to 
stand behind.
C    F#m               D            
             N.C.
Love gather around, it takes apart 
and breathes.

[Chorus]
                        N.C.  G*    
                            G*
I will try to hold this         if 
you don’t see where hope is.
                           G       
Your hero is not dead just sleeping
