Verse 1 :
          D                A      Bm7
Sometimes what you need is what you fight
       D               A     G
Like a wounded man out on the run
     D              A        Bm7
Like shadows hiding from the light 
         G                  A      D
But your love is what I was running from
                  A       Bm7
Hope’s a seed you have to sow
         D            A        G
When you let it go it comes to life
       D                   A      Bm7
So you stretch your arrows on the bow
        G                  A         D
And you pull them back and watch them fly


Chorus :
   G             A
My heartbeat, my oxygen
   G          A
My banner, my home
   G          A          
My future, my song
     G                  A     D     A     Bm7    D   A     Bm7
Your hope is the anthem of my soul, oh whoa          oh whoa


Verse 2 :
   D                A        Bm7
My lungs and I were born to fight
          D                     A       G
Sometimes I’m not sure what I’m fighting for
    D                    A      Bm7
But death ain’t the only end in sight
       G                          A       D   
’Cause this ain’t a battle it’s a lifelong war


Chorus :
   G             A
My heartbeat, my oxygen
   G          A
My banner, my home
   G           A          
My freedom, my song
     G                        D     A     Bm7 
Your hope is the anthem of my soul, oh whoa
D  A              G                        D     A     Bm7    G   A
   (Oh whoa) Your hope is the anthem of my soul, oh whoa 


Bridge :
   G                               D
My heart is beating like a blown speaker
    A                                  Bm7
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weaker
     G                           D
A distortion pedal and a pair of wings
       A                       D      A - Bm7    D   A - Bm7
And an anthem played on broken strings


Chorus :
   G             A
My heartbeat, my oxygen
   G          A
My banner, my home
   G          A          
My future, my song
     G                 
Your hope is the anthem
           G   
Yeah, Your hope is the anthem of my soul
      D                  A     Bm7
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
      D                  A     G
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
      D                  A     Bm7
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
      G                  A     D
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
