F#                     Fm A#m
Patience only gets you so far
Blood will get you further
F#                        G#   A#m
Pain will only make your heart hard
Tossed in fury's weather
F#                     Fm A#m
Innocence is beautiful to see
                        F#
Won't you box it up for me?
G# A#m
For me

C#             D#m                 A#m
Oh, give me strength, and give me peace
C#           D#m                   F#
Does anyone out there want to hear me?

Chorus:
           F#
It's just another downpour,
      A#m                       C# F#
Don't let it get the best of you
          F#
It's only up from the floor,
      A#m                     C# F#
Light everything inside of you
G#              A#m                C# F#
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me
G#              A#m                C# F#
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me

Sadness is my enemy
I fear time will age him gently
Walking by my side for all these years
Seems that we've grown friendly
Happiness is beautiful to see
Won't you box it up for me? (For me)
For me

Oh, give me strength, and give me peace
Does anyone out there want to hear me?

Chorus

           F#             A#m G# F#
It's just another downpour
           F#             A#m G# F#
It's just another downpour
F# A#m G#        F#
I     won't give up
F# A#m G#        F#
I     won't give up
F# A#m G#        F#
I     won't give up
F# A#m G#
I     won't

Chorus:
It's just another downpour,
Don't let it get the best of you
It's only up from the floor,
Light everything inside of you
I don't wanna let you go,
I don't wanna let you go
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me
I don't wanna let you go,
I don't wanna let you go
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me
