You were [Bm] full and fully capable [D] You were self [Em]-sufficient and [G] needless
Your [D] house was [A] fully [Em] [D] decorated in that sense [Em] You [G] [D] were taken with me to a point
A case to care for what you wished for But what you knew was here not to begin
And so you called and called fiercely So he reached down and suddenly feared us
And yet you knew of reservation and how it served
And I [G] salute you for [A] your courage And I [G] admire the [A] substance
And I [G] embrace you for your [A] faith In the face [G] of bad luck
Stay [A] all forces that I represent
[D]
I see you worrying but not entirely You were up for this but not to tell me
You knew how I'm slain, think I'm maintained out
And so you fell intact So you know we are still breathing
And so you jumped So you're still flying, give no shot
And I [G] support you in your [A] trusting And I [D] commend you for your [A] wisdom
And I'm [G] amazed by your [A] surrender In the [G] face of threatening [A] forces that I [D] represent
You found creative ways to distance You hid away from much through humor
Your choice of armor was your intellect
And so you fell and you're still here And so you die, you're still standing
And so you stop and I still see me in command
And I salute [G] you for your [A] courage And I [D] admire the [A] substance
And I [G] embrace you for your [A] faith In the face [G] of bad luck
[D] Stay all [A] forces that I [D] represent
[C] Self-perception was [Bm] in times of [G] true danger [C] Your best defense to [Bm] mistrust and be wary
[Am]
Surrendering to [G] you on equal measure [D] And I'm thrilled to let you be here
Overjoyed to be at it in the night
And I [G] salute you for your [A] courage And I [G] commend you for your [A] [G] grace
You [D] for your [A] faith In the face of [D]
adversarial [A] forces
And I [G] support you in your [A] trusting And I [G] admire your [A] perseverance
