Bm
This is my renaissance
G			
This is my one response
D                                  Asus4
This is the way I say I love you
Bm
This is my second chance
G
This is my one romance
D               
This is the cutting line
Asus4
On which I stand to show you
Bm
It happened fast in a flash just this evening
G
I hit the gas, horn blast, brakes screaming
D
Car crash, broken glass, broke my dreaming
Asus4
I hit the dash so fast my ears are ringing
Bm
My sister’s on the right side just slightly leaning
G
I grabbed her hand hard until she started breathing
D
My brother’s in the back jaw cracked from the beating
Asus4
The breath in my chest has slipped and I’m sinking
Bm
Blinking through diamond spider webs of cracked glass
G
I’m trying to remember all the words you said in the past
D
Through the ash, siren screams and red beams
Asus4
I hear you sing softly to me

CHORUS: D G Asus4 D (2X)
D
I can be the wall when you fall down
G
Find me on the rocks when you break down

Asus4
I heard it in the song when you call out
D
But I got to say now it’s got to change (REPEAT)

BREAK: Bm G D Asus4 (1X)
Bm
This is my broken heart
G
This is my bleeding start
D                                           Asus4
This is the way I’ve come to know you
Bm
This is my winding road
G
This is my way back home
D                                           Asus4
This is the narrow door you know that I will walk through

VERSE 2: Bm G D Asus4 (4X)
Bm
I got a letter today of why she went away
G
She said, it’s better this way, you know I never could stay
D
Half empty closets and frames, all that’s left to my name
Asus4
As she left in the rain and left my heart on a chain
Bm
Three years I’ve built this two-face tower for hours on a lease
G
You gave me one yellow flower that said rest in peace
D
In pieces I’ve broken open to think too much or just enough
Asus4
Alone to trust midst the rubble and the dust
Bm
Humbled, it took this much to break down and understand
G
Spent my life this far on castles made of sand
D
Tossed in the breakers in the palm of your hand
Asus4
Now I can finally stand

CHORUS: D G Asus4 D (4X)
D
I can be the wall when you fall down
G
Find me on the rocks when you break down
Asus4
I heard it in the song when you call out
D
But I got to say now it’s got to change
D                                        G
I can be the wall………….
Asus4                                 D
I heard it in the song……………..
D			       G
I can be the wall…………………
Asus4 			       D
I heard it in the song…………………
