Tom: D
G Em
Your heart is like a fortress
B A
Keep your feelings locked away
G
Is it easier?
Em B A
Does it make you feel safe?
G Em
You wander through the darkness
B A
Of wilderness behind your eyes
G
I know you’re afraid
Em B
But you gotta move on
[Chorus 1]
G Em
Every fortress falls
B A
It is not the end
G A
It ain't if you fall
B A G Em
But how you rise that says who you really are
A B D
So get up and come through
G
If ever your fortress caves
Em
You're always safe
[Verse 2]
G Em
I believe I know you
B A
Yet, I don't truly know myself
D G Em B F#m
I pray you won't feel as alone as I have felt
G A
I don't want to fail you so
B D
I tell you the awful truth
G Em
Everyone faces darkness on their own
A B
As I have done, so will you
[Chorus 2]
G A
Every fortress falls
A B
It is not the end
A G Em
It ain't if you fall
A B A
But how you rise that says
G A
Who you really are
B D
So get up and go through
F#m G D
If ever your fortress caves
Em B
You're always safe in mine
Am G B Em B
[Verse 3]
D C#m
The Earth spins round the sun
Em
And behold
E
Everything happens
B D A B Em
Every night that falls prey to sunrise
G Em B A
G Em
If your fortress is under siege
B A B G A Em
You can always run for me
B D G
If your fortress is under siege
A Em B
You can always run
[Chorus 3]
G Em
Every fortress falls
A B
It is not the end
A G Em
It ain't if you fall
A B A
But how you rise that says
G A
Who you really are
B D
So get up and go through
F#m G D
If ever your fortress caves
Em B
You're always safe in mine
F#m G D
If ever your fortress caves
Em B
You're always safe in mine
F#m G D
If ever your fortress caves
Em B
You're always safe in mine
