Intro: AmFCG6Verse 1:
AmF
It took his breath away, holding the bank page
CG6
He got the letter, they're going to take the house away
AmF
About to have a daughter, he yells it in the air
CG6F
Feeling the weight of the world that just don't care
AmF
He lit a cigarette, felt it on his lip
CG6
Driving home on a long road with regret
AmF
He rolls the window down, shouts it out loud
CG6F
Pushing the pedal and praying "Lord, help us now"
G6G (stop)
He's looking for a reason watching the sun going down
Chorus:
AmF
Can you hear when we call, there when we fall?
CG
Standing our backs against the wall
AmF
Top of our lungs, hallelujah
CG
Where pain and love bleed into one
AmFC
Baby when all you see is darkness
G
Coming down now
AmFC
We all need forgiveness
G
Coming round now
AmC
(Oh, oh, oh oh...)
G
Coming down now
Verse 2:
AmF
It was Monday night, under the street lights
CG6
She's turning seventeen in seven nights
AmF
Out on the fairgrounds, walking in monotone
CG6
She kicks a bottle that's empty as her soul
AmF
Out on the road alone, in a house that's half a home
CG6Am
They give her pills to kill when she feels alone
G6G (stop)
She's looking for a reason watching the sun going down
Chorus:
AmF
Can you hear when we call, there when we fall?
CG
Standing our backs against the wall
AmF
Top of our lungs, hallelujah
CG
Where pain and love bleed into one
AmFC
Baby when all you see is darkness
G
Coming down now
AmFCG
We all need forgiveness
Bridge:
Em7F#/Dsus
Take these broken streets
Cadd9
Take these broken dreams
Em7
Hold my hand like we were walking free
Cadd9
Tell me it will change I see it in your face
GCadd9Dsus2
The hope the fear the love the faith
Verse 3:
AmF
I’m working late again slaving to make the rent
CG6
I’m slanging coffee with dreams heavy as cement
AmF
They’re coming one by one the face of falling love
CG6 (stop)
I write a song with a prayer as I slide the cup
Chorus:
AmF
Can you hear when we call, there when we fall?
CG
Standing our backs against the wall
AmF
Top of our lungs, hallelujah
CG
Where pain and love bleed into one
AmFC
Baby when all you see is darkness
G
Coming down now
AmFCG
We all need forgiveness
AmF
Can you hear when we call, there when we fall?
CG
Standing our backs against the wall
AmF
At the top of our lungs, how far we've come
CG
Where pain and love bleed into one
AmF
All that we need is so bittersweet
CG
The pain that opens our eyes to see
AmFC
Baby when all you see is darkness
G
Coming down now
AmFC
We all need forgiveness
G
Coming 'round now

It's coming down now

(Oh, oh, oh oh...)
G
Coming down now
AmC (stop)
(Oh, oh, oh oh...)
It's coming down now
