Verse:
C              Am
Once high on a hill,
            Em                G
There was a song, nothing was wrong,
            C
That's when time stood still.
C              Am   
Now lovers are lost,
                Em                    G
Caught in their dreams, tied in their thoughts,
              C
Tapped in the depth of their love.

Chorus:
F         C         G    G Em C Am7
If I can hold on to you,
Dm       Am         Em  E7
If I can hold on to you.

(Repeat Intro)

Verse:
Somewhere near the end,
Lovers pretend, fake what they feel,
Take what they get from love.
Start staying alive,
Missing their drive, four out of five,
Without the feeling of love.

Chorus:

  Harmonica solo (as per verse):

Bridge:
C             F                 C
If the sky is fire then hell is blue,
C              F                C
If all of our dreams won’t come true,
C              F                C
If the sky is fire then hell is blue,
C          Gm
I’ll cover you,

That's why

Verse:
I’m out of control,
Tear myself down, build myself up,
Tear myself down again.
I’m talking to you,
Trying to get through, don’t want to hide,
Lost in the mirror of love.

  C   Am   Em   G   C
