Intro: C C/B C/A G F G X2
[Verse]
C C/B C/A G F G
I went on the search for something true
C C/B C/A G F G
I was almost there when I found you
C C/B C/A G
Sooner then my fate was wrote
F G
A perfect blade, it slit my throat
C C/B C/A G F G
And beads of lust released into the air
F G
When I awoke you were standing there
[Break] C C/B C/A G F G X2
[Verse]
C C/B C/A G F G
I was on the mend when I fell through
C C/B C/A G F G
The sky around was anything but blue
C C/B C/A G
I found as I regained my feet
F G
A wound across my memory
C C/B C/A G F G
That no amount of stitches would repair
F G
But I awoke and you were standing there
[Break] C G/B F G X2
[Chorus]
C C/B C/A G F G
There's no fortune at the end of the road that has no end
C C/B C/A
There's no returning to the spoils
G F G
Once you've spoiled the thought of them
C C/B C/A
There's no falling back asleep
G F G
Once you've wakened from the dream
C C/B C/A G
Now I'm rested and I'm ready,
F G
I'm rested and I'm ready to begin
C C/B C/A G F G
I'm ready to begin
[Break] C C/B C/A G F G
[Verse]
C C/B C/A G F G
I went on the search for something real
C C/B C/A G F G
Traded what I know for how I feel
C C/B C/A G
But the ceiling and the walls collapsed
F G
Upon the darkness I was trapped
C C/B C/A G F G
And as the last of breath was drawn from me
F G
The light broke in and brought me to my feet
[Break] C C/B C/A G F G
[Chorus]
C C/B C/A G F G
There's no fortune at the end of the road that has no end
C C/B C/A
There's no returning to the spoils
G F G
Once you've spoiled the thought of them
C C/B C/A
There's no falling back asleep
G F G
Once you've wakened from the dream
C C/B C/A G
Now I'm rested and I'm ready,
F G
I'm rested and I'm ready
C C/B C/A G
Yeah I'm rested and I'm ready
F G
I'm rested and I'm ready
C C/B C/A G
Yeah I'm rested and I'm ready
F G
I'm rested and I'm ready
N.C.
To begin
[Break] C G/B F
G C
I'm ready to begin.
