[Intro]
D / | A - Bm7 // | D / | A - Bm7 //
[Verse 1]
D A Bm7
Sometimes what you need is what you fight
D A G
Like a wounded man out on the run
D A Bm7
Like shadows hiding from the light
G A D
But your love is what I was running from
A Bm7
Hope’s a seed you have to sow
D A G
When you let it go it comes to life
D A Bm7
So you stretch your arrows on the bow
G A D
And you pull them back and watch them fly
[Chorus]
G A
My heartbeat, my oxygen
G A
My banner, my home
G A
My future, my song
G A D A Bm7 D A Bm7
Your hope is the anthem of my soul, oh whoa oh whoa
[Verse 2]
D A Bm7
My lungs and I were born to fight
D A G
Sometimes I’m not sure what I’m fighting for
D A Bm7
But death ain’t the only end in sight
G A D
’Cause this ain’t a battle it’s a lifelong war
[Chorus]
G A
My heartbeat, my oxygen
G A
My banner, my home
G A
My freedom, my song
G D A Bm7
Your hope is the anthem of my soul, oh whoa
D A G D A Bm7 G A
(Oh whoa) Your hope is the anthem of my soul, oh whoa
[Bridge]
G D
My heart is beating like a blown speaker
A Bm7
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weaker
G D
A distortion pedal and a pair of wings
A D A - Bm7 D A - Bm7
And an anthem played on broken strings
[Chorus]
G A
My heartbeat, my oxygen
G A
My banner, my home
G A
My future, my song
G
Your hope is the anthem
G
Yeah, Your hope is the anthem of my soul
D A Bm7
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
D A G
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
D A Bm7
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
G A D
(Your hope is the anthem of my soul)
[Outro]
D
Yeah, could you make me whole
D
Yeah, could you make me whole
D
Yeah, could you make me whole
