[Abm] [Ebm]
[Db]
[Abm] [Ab] Every day [Ebm] you were born, you lost your home, boat on the dock.
[Db] Doctor said you had a hole in your heart.
I [Abm] just knew you were making room for a whole lot of heart.
I loved you from the day until your soul [Ebm] depart.
You took your first breath upon my [Db] chest.
Built you a good nest before I [Abm] left.
Wasn't that I never loved your mother.
But two happy [Ab] homes are better than one that [Ebm] suffered.
I said I regretting the life that I [Db] made.
You had the temper, but I was strengthening your ideal every [Abm] day.
I know you never said that [Ab] you'd like me to stay.
Still I'm sorry I neglected [Ebm] you while I was away.
You were eight when we had a cat pity.
[Db] And no child could face their death or mortality.
[Abm] You taught me patience, strength and morality.
And I'd murder Miss Whitey instead of you happily [Ebm] that night.
Why I asked you to die from your sickness.
[Db] And why I had it chosen your life out of [Abm] millions.
You filled me with the pride I was [Ab] missing.
As grown men cry, they'll lose your type of [Ebm] resilience.
Only when it's dark are the stars so bright.
[Db] For your fight you've gone hard, but these guys are light.
But [Abm] you were brave, little slow.
Came from the cold, like a fighter.
Hope you [Ab] find the same flame in [Ebm] your own.
Fall [Db] asleep and lay with [Abm] me.
We'll search the night for [Gb] shooting [Ebm] stars.
They [Db] can't take away your [Abm] pain.
I'll take your hand, walk [Db] through the [Ebm] dark.
Through the [Gb] dark.
Through the [B] dark.
I [Ebm] wrote this while you slept in a hot little bed.
[Db] Know this, your breath, at the cost of my breath.
[Abm] Thought fordo this life if you haunt [Ab] on my death.
You could know what it's like to live long in regret.
[Ebm] So you could fight, you could shove, you could bleed and hurt.
[Db] You could cry, you could love when your credo worked.
[Abm] And your stripes act dumb, but your teeth are worth.
I'd take a wife to become [B] your spy.
See enough [Ebm] of this.
These are things you never see.
[Db] But know God, just me, here to set you free.
[Abm] And most of us won't understand the hell in which you're beaning.
Till they wrestle with the demon.
But take heart to be brave.
You certainly feel [Db] the same heart that's seen pain.
You persevere, [Abm] we'll serve you.
I know this world is a course of fear and hurt.
But these virtues are yours to bear.
[Ebm] I named you Lionheart at the day [Db] you're born.
We save the night of darkness before [Abm] the dawn.
I'll take your hand upon this path.
You can light a spark.
We give you some calm in a [Ebm] raging storm.
May nothing less than scare you see.
[Db] So we can live life and cherish every breath we breathe.
[Abm] And no matter where you go, no one ever leave.
Cause even when we're gone, we're [Db] living in a memory [Ebm] to live on.
[Db] Fall asleep and lay [Abm] with me.
We'll search the night for [Gb] shooting [Ebm] stars.
They [Db] can't take the way [Abm] you paint.
I'll take your hand, walk [Ab] through the [Ebm] dark.
Fall [Db] asleep and lay [Abm] with me.
We'll search the night for [Gb] shooting [Ebm] stars.
They [Db] can't take the way [Abm] you paint.
I'll take your hand, [Ab] walk through [Ebm] the dark.
Through [Gb] the dark.
Through [B] the dark.
[Ebm] [Abm]
[B] [Ebm] [Eb] And I'm sorry that I can't take your pain on my [Abm] survival.
Lay awake through darker [B] skies.
I say your name, you cast a [Ebm] light.
You're a flame on a starless night.
And I didn't [Gb] know I was lost till you [Abm] found me.
Didn't know I was locked in [B] without keys.
But we can walk across all these [Ebm] boundaries.
You and me, nothing here to stop you.
You're now free.
So I wrote this to give you [Abm] hope for every good thing in life you'll live to [B] know.
They say cancer survivors are gifted [Ebm] though.
Let me know if that isn't so.
