Tom: Bm
A Em
I don't have silver, I don’t have gold
D
But everything I have, I offer you to hold
A
I am not the strongest
Em
Or the wisest man
D
And yet I stand before you still
Do with me what you will
Bm
I know it's taking time
D
I can finally look you in the eyes and say that
[Chorus]
A
I am not an island
E
I am not a fortress
Bm7 D
I am not an anchor in the seas
A E
I'm a man, out here in the darkness walking
Bm E D
And I need you out here walking beside me
[Verse 2]
A Em
You showed me mercy, undeserved
D
You have tended to our love, like a gardener with the earth
A Em
You showed me patience and brought me ease
D
You have opened up my eyes and taught me how to see
Bm7
That I was a stubborn prideful man
D
But you have made me understand that
[Chorus]
A
I am not an island
E
I am not a fortress
Bm7 D
I am not an anchor in the seas
A E
I’m just a man, out here in the darkness walking
Bm7 D
And I need you out here walking beside me
[Bridge]
Bm7
And I know it won't be easy
A C#m
And I know that my jokes are cheesy
D
But my love for you is real
A
And so much deeper than a feeling
Bm7
And I'm ready for the road
C#m A
I can take your heavy load
D
Over mountains high and valleys deep
Am A
I can sing us both to sleep
F#m Bm7
But if I start to lose myself
D
You can dance me back to health
And tell me
[Chorus]
A
I am not an island
E
I am not a fortress
Bm7 Bm D
I am not an anchor in the seas
A E
I'm a man, out here in the darkness walking
Bm7 Bm D
And I need you out here walking beside me
