Am
When your love of life is an empty beach
        Dm        Em
Don't cry (Don't cry)
Am
When your enemy has you in his reach
      Dm          Em
Don't die (Don't die)

When it hurts to share because
they're bare and real
(So real)
So when everyday is judgement day,
I won't pray
(Don't pray)
When there's no-one to share that empty chair,
well OK
(Okay) (Okay)

Chorus:
          Am
When you get to the bottom
You're near the top
      Dm             Em
The shit turns into chocolate drops
When you get to the bottom
You're near the top
The shit turns into chocolate drops

Am  Dm      Em
So fly (So fly)
So fly (So fly)

When your love of life is an empty beach
(Don't cry)
When is painful to express the things you feel
(Inside)

Chorus

          F               Dm  Am             Dm
There is nothing in the stars if You fail to move
                         E          Am              Dm
There is nothing in the dark, it's just some old excuse
        F          E
Hanging on, let it go!
