[Am] Fearless people Careless needle
Harsh words spoken
[Em] And lives are [F] broken

[E] Help me [D] I'm faded
[E] [F] Heaven's waiting
[A] It's time [C] to move on
[D] [Fm] Crossing [C] that bridge
With lessons [Gm] I've learned
[F] Playin' with fire
And not [Fm] getting burned
I [C] may not know
What you're going [Gm] through
But time [F] is a space
Between me and you
Life [Am] carries on
[G] It [Am] goes on
[D]
[Am] Just say die
[F] And I will be [Am] passing this name
In your [D] mind
We can walk [Am] across water
Please don't [C] cry
[F] It's just a prayer for the dying
[C] I just don't [F] know what's got into me

And not [Fm] getting burned
I [C] may not know
What you're [Gm] going through
But time [F] is a space
Between me [Fm] and you

Hold [F] on say yes
While people say no

What you're [Gm] going through
But time [F] is a space
Between me [Fm] and you

Hold [F] on say yes
While people say no
Cause life [A] carries [Am] on
