VERSE 1
G W/D G/F#
Oh I'm waiting for the answer to the question in my soul

Lord why did you lead me here?

'Cause I, I take a look around and a desperate world surrounds me
Em C
I know I'm not of this place, but its here and in my face

All that I am wants to run
Em G/F# A
God I feel helpless and undone

Lift me up above it all

I'm feeling broken and alone

Don't let me turn to stone
G W/D C2
Lift my heart above it all

I've lost my hope tonight

carry on Lord will you lift me above it all

G G/F#
Now I'm waiting for a glimpse of hope in an eye
Em C
But a flash of sunlight shows a faded gray

Cause these streets are hard and cold
G/F# Em
And the alleys burn like coal with a stench of helplessness
C
And all the life that's been misspent
Repeat Pre Chorus and Chorus

Maybe I'm not supposed to fly
Em G D
Maybe you want me here tonight
