Capo 2nd fret

Down a half step

Intro is those chords

Verse1

Please, tell me how you lift these heavy bricks

And how you built this path for me to walk on.

You carve yourself in stones with the strength of all convinced,

But I know your skin is still as thin as mine.

Prechorus

What does it take to believe

In all the things you believe?

And maybe I need to listen more carefully.

Chorus

I finally know how you stand against the worst there is.

Verse2

You enjoy coffee and Debussy.

I can't believe the calmness in your veins after everything.

And when she dreams, she sees herself in her Sunday dress,

Humming simple melodies, she's known since she was only three.

Prechorus

What does it take to believe

In all the things you believe?

And maybe I need to listen more carefully.

Chorus

I finally know how you stand against the worst there is.

I finally found the strength you've tried to tell me about.

Bridge/Interlude thing

Oh, even when the sky is crashing down,

You, You locked your knees and stood up straight.

You are the strength inside my veins,

Oh, I want to feel the strength you know.

Outro

What does it take to believe

In all the things you believe?

And maybe I need to listen more carefully.
