City And Colour - Hope For Now

city and colour
little hell
hope for now

Am
this hallway’s dark and empty
F D
just miles and miles of endless road
Am
i’ve got a sickness pounding in my head
F D
i’m at the mercy of the ghosts

Am
but what it would take to live
F D
as if i would not another day
Am
to live without despair
F D
and to be without another desdain

chorus :
F G
how can i instill such hope
Am D
but be left with none of my own?
F
what if i could sing
G
just one song
Am D
and it might save somebody’s life

Am
i sought after
F D
after reasons to stay
Am
i was lost
F D
i was lost

Am
then the sky turned black
F D
and the rains poured down
Am
i was waiting
F D
waiting to be found

oh , no

chorus :

F G
how can i instill such hope
Am D
but be left with none of my own?
F
what if i could sing
G
just one song
Am D
and it might save somebody’s life

Am
then i would sing
D
all that i can sing
F
because that is when
G D
when i feel that i’m not counting time

Am
oh , and i sing
D
all that i can sing
F
maybe just for the moment
G D
things would seem all right

F G
oh , and i sing
Am D
oh , and i sing
F G
oh , and i sing
Am D
oh , and i sing
