Saw this band in concert in November. Maria Brink performed this song and I was absolutely captivated.
An impossibly beautiful song! The whole song is played on piano and with an orchestra but here are the
guitar chords for the song. I hope you enjoy!

[Intro]
Em7 Dsus4 C2 D
[Verse 1]
Em7 Dsus4
Can anybody tell me why
C2
We're lying here on the floor
D Em7
And neither of us can barely breathe at all
Dsus4
The doctor's saying hold on tight
C2
As we say our last goodbye's
D C2 D
And this is a moment that changes our whole lives.
[Chorus]
Em7 Dsus4 C2
And I still believe in the good, and I still believe in the light
D Em7
And I wanna feel the sun. I wanna free you tonight.
Dsus4 C2
And I still believe in the good, and I still believe in the light
D C2 D
And I wanna feel the sun. I wanna free you tonight.
[Verse 2]
Em7 Dsus4
I'm staring deep into your eyes,
C2
they're telling me your time has come
D Em7
And I know you're ready to rise and sail home
Dsus4
The room is filling up with light
C2
as we say our last goodnight
D C2 D
I thank you for every second of your life.
[Chorus]
Em7 Dsus4 C2
And I still believe in the good, and I still believe in the light
D Em7
And I wanna feel the sun. I wanna free you tonight.
Dsus4 C2
And I still believe in the good, and I still believe in the light
D
And I wanna feel the sun. I wanna free you.
[Bridge]
Am B#/Am C
And I'm falling, watching as you're hurting
G Dsus4 D
I'm down here. I'm on my knees. How can I survive?
Am B#/Am C
And you turn to me and promise me you're ready
G Dsus4 D
And tell me you'll be waiting on the other side.
[Chorus]
Em7 Dsus4 C2
And I still believe in the good, and I still believe in the light
D Em7
And I wanna feel the sun. I wanna free you tonight.
Dsus4 C2
And you showed me all the good, and you lead me through the light
D
And you gave me the sun, it's time to free you tonight.
