Tom: Am
Am F
so go ahead and lie to yourself,
G
and pretend that you’re a ray of light,
G
when you’re a broken candle,
Am F
you’re keeping time with yourself,
G
when did it all start moving way too fast,
G
for you to handle,
Am F
you’re short on breath but heavy on time,
G Am G
you lost the words but you found the rhyme,
F G
it’s all just poetry now,
the walls are singing,
Am F G
hallelujah amen,
the walls are singing,
Am F G
hallelujah amen,
*piano*
Am F G
Am F G
Am F
it’s so dark in the room,
G
and the ceilings are high,
you know the feeling,
Am
you’ve been here before,
Am F
But it’s a broken old pew,
G
and it’s an echoing cry,
Am
don’t sell yourself short,
F
on breath and heavy on time,
G Am G
you lost the words but you found the rhyme,
F G
it’s all just poetry now,
the walls are singing,
Am F G
hallelujah amen,
the walls are singing,
Am F G
hallelujah amen,

Now's the part where it gets all intense and in the latest version Sam does his speech.
Basically the chords are
Am F G
or something along those lines.
Am F
in time you’ll find,
G G
this life’s a painting and you’re the artist,
Am F
so open your eyes,
G G
it’s never too late to clear your canvas,
Am
so paint me jealous,
F
paint me rage,
G Am G
for God’s sake paint me anything,
F
just paint,
G
your brush awaits,
Am F G
hallelujah amen,
the walls sing you to sleep,
Am F G
hallelujah amen,
Am F G
one secret meant to keep you safe tonight,
Am F G
I swear that everything will be alright
