Intro:
G Am7 Cadd9 G

Verse:
G                       Am7
Please, tell me how you lift these heavy bricks
    Cadd9                             G
And how you built this path for me to walk on.
          G                           Am7
You carve yourself in stones with the strength of all convinced,
      Cadd9                              G
But I know your skin is still as thin as mine.

Prechorus:
Am7
What does it take to believe
D7
In all the things you believe?
Am7                            D7
And maybe I need to listen more carefully.

Chorus:
G         Am7          Cadd9                         G
I finally know how you stand against the worst there is.

Verse:
G                    Am7
You enjoy coffee and Debussy.
                    Cadd9                        G
I can't believe the calmness in your bones after everything.
             G                               Am7
And when she dreams, she sees herself in her Sunday dress,
               Cadd9                               G
Humming simple melodies, she's known since she was only three.

Prechorus:
Am7
What does it take to believe
D7
In all the things you believe?
Am7                            D7
And maybe I need to listen more carefully.

Chorus:
G         Am7          Cadd9                         G
I finally know how you stand against the worst there is.
G         Am7                       Cadd9            G
I finally found the strength you've tried to tell me about.

Bridge:
Em7               Am7
Oh, even when the sky is crashing down,
Em7                  D7
You, you locked your knees and stood up straight.
Em7         Am7
You are the strength inside my veins,
Em7           D7
Oh, I want to feel the strength you know.

Prechorus:
Am7
What does it take to believe
D7
In all the things you believe?
Am7                            D7
And maybe I need to listen more carefully.
