Chords for 🙏 In loving memory of Chester Bennington. 🖤 Papa Roach - Leave a Light On 🕯️ 10.20.23

This issue [A] doesn't affect one of us or a few of us.
[Bm] It affects all of us.
[F#m] If you've lost someone, [D] know someone who's lost [A] someone,
or know someone who struggles,
[Bm] even if you yourself have struggled,
_ the first step to finding a solution [G] is to talk about it and to ask [A] questions.
_ Life is so [E] meaningful,
and when you're struggling mentally, it doesn't [F#] always feel that way.
[G] _ _
Depression, [A] anxiety, addiction, trauma, and stress
[A#] can make you feel alone and [Bm] withdrawn.
_ [A] But you are not alone.
[G] It's important to know [A] we are not our thoughts.
_ Suicide [B] research shows that when you're in a state of crisis,
feeling the effects of [G] life,
your critical thinking is affected.
_ [A] Your mind doesn't have the access [Bm] to normal coping mechanisms.
_ [D] I've fought [G] my fair share of battles in my own mind
and learned the [A] truth in the saying,
this too shall [Bm] pass. _
[C] Albert has talked [B] about mental health since the [G#] beginning of our career.
It's been the topic of countless songs,
[F#m] and in being able to travel the world and see all of you,
there's no greater feeling than when somebody says,
your music [G#] saved my life.
_ This cause [F#] is extremely important to us,
so we wanted to give back.
_ Just by being here tonight, you're all part of this with us.
_ We'll be making a [F#] donation to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention
in the name of [G] tonight's show,
so that you can [E] take an initiative to save lives
and bring hope to those affected by suicide. _
Their Talk Away the [E] Dark campaign teaches you the warning signs for suicide
[Gm] and how to have a conversation that can save a life,
[F#] whether it's someone else's or your own.
_ If you've got a light,
take it out and hold it up [A#] high during this next [G#] song.
For anyone [C] that's in the dark,
I want you to [Am] always know,
you are not alone.
We will always leave a light on for [G] you. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ Debra, that is awesome.
Absolutely beautiful.
Absolutely.
_ _ I'd like to dedicate this song in memory of Mr.
Chester Banks.
This one's called Leave a Light.
_ [C#] _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] I'm a lonely stranger in a lonely piece of wood
Living in a valley [F#] so deep that I know
[G] I could tell [E] you're not alone here for [Bm] _ _ years _ _ _ _
_ Wildfires burn you down to stone
Our lives turned from a [F#] world so cold
[G] A million miles [B] apart within our [Bm] _ reach _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ And since the [D] day you [G] died
I've _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ been alone [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ for you You, _ you _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
Rain comes falling in every drought
Washing away the [F#] remnants of all the doubt
[G] I hope that you [A] see me _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ Standing [B] _ through a [Bm] _ rift in [D] your hate
I'm [G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[Bm] for you _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ I'm [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[Em] for you _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ I'm _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ for you _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[Bm] I'm for you _ [B] You, _ [Bm] you _ _ _ [E] _ You _
[G] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ _ _ Thank you.
