Verse
B Esus2 C#m E
From the dark it appeared
B Esus2 C#m E
E splendid mystery, oh, it drew me near
B Esus2 C#m E
Towards a path far from home
B Esus2 C#m E
And I knew I had to go forth alone
[Chorus 2]
B F# G#m F# E
Deep in the heart of this lone bridge
B C#m C# E
E sudden terror overtook me
B F# G#m F# E
Continue blindly or turn back
B C#m C# E
At risk of burdening the wood and rope I’d already passed?
[Interlude]
B-E-E E B-E-E E
[Bridge]
N.C.
Somehow I fought
N.C.
Back against uncertainty
N.C.
The harsh bite of jealousy
N.C.
Prayers she had sent for me
[Verse 3]
B Esus2 C#m E
To embark upon
B Esus2 C#m E
Something they had never done
B Esus2
Out of fear
C#m E
Fear of pain
B Esus2 C#m E
But keeping static felt exactly the same
[Chorus 3]
B F# G#m F# E
From underneath, the dark waves riled
B C#m E
After a wind blew by, removing
B F# G#m B E
E pair of glasses from my face
B C#m E
And it occurred to me it wasn’t worth just staying in place
