       C#m
Don't wrap it up in gold
       G#m
don't hide it behind the sun
      D#m
just give it to me as it is
F#m
and let it stand
      C#m
Don't fly it like a kite
 G#m
between the clouds
   D#m
It needs no excuse
               F#m
just bring it down
     A                E          B
Let eyes that are in pain look upon it
   F#m E     B
in all its glory

            C#m             G#m F#m
Let us move on, let us move on,
              B                A
for this is short and it will pass
            C#m             E B
Let us move on, let us move on,
             G#m              F#m
for this is short and it will pass

For every voice that is lifted
In reverence and pain
Show us now
And let love not be chained
We should feel what we can stand
And let us be alive
So we know
That we’ve done all we can
Let hearts that are frozen get to see it
In all its glory

Chorus

        C#m                     B
And let all that is lost be forgotten
                A
and it will pass
       C#m                     B
So let all that is lost be forgotten
            C#m
Let us move on.

Like the waters in the open sea
When tribulations come all we can say is hopefully
And yesterday you could probably say there's no
hope for me
But today I'm overly dedicated, I'm 'posed to be
A testimony for broken hearts in the city
You either crash landing or planning on
flying with me
Misery loves standing behind its company, well
Vividly I can see that your feelings would like
to dwell
On our past encounters, reaching over the counter
Told me that it's a appealing to pop a pill,
that's a downer
I heard emotions burn deep
I heard when you fall out of love the drop is steep
I heard when you see a thug, that's what you
try be
Got these burdens under my wings, but
I'm still free
Cause I can make the decision to let it
all go away
Before I ever run astray I'll look you in
the eye and say

Chorus
