Intro: C/G|Em|Am|Bb7 (x2)
Verse 1:
I n[C/G]ever meant to wither
I w[Em]anted to be tall
Like [Am]a fool, left the river
And w[Bb7]atched my branches fall.
Old[C/G] and thirsty, i longed for the flood
To[Em] come back around
To the [Am]cactus in the valley,
That's a[Bb7]bout to crumble down
Chorus:
And [F]wipe the mark of [G-B]sadness from my fa[C/G]ce
[F]Show me that your lov[G-B]e will never chan[C/G]ge
[F]If my yester[G-B]day is a d[Am]isgrac[D]e
[F]Show me that you st[G-B]ill recall my [F]nam[C/G]e.
Verse 2:
[C/G]So the storm finally found me and lef[Em]t me in the dark
[Am]In the cloud around me, i[Bb7] don't know where you are
If th[C/G]is old/whole world goes up in arms, a[Em]ll i can do is stand/stare
An[Am]d i wont fight for anyone un[Bb7]til you move my hands.
Chorus:
And w[F]ipe the mark of[G-B] madness from my f[C/G]ace
S[F]how me that your lov[G-B]e will never chan[C/G]ge
[F]If my yester[G-B]day is a d[Am]isgra[D]ce,
[F]Tell me that you [G-B]still recall my n[F]ame[C/G].
Bridge:
(the C/G can be replaced by a regular open C chord)
Oh [Am]here, in this [Dm]shadow;
Here i [G]am
And i n[Am]eed someone [C/G]by my sid[Am]e.
It becom[Dm]es so
Hard to st[G]and
And i keep try[C/G]ing to dr[G]y my eye[Am]s.
[C/G]Come and find me[D]
In the va[F]lley.
Chorus:
And W[F]ipe the mark of [G-B]sadness from my[C/G] face,
[F]show me that your[G-B] love will never ch[C/G]ange.
And [F]if my yester[G-B]day is a [Am]disgra[D]ce,
T[F]ell me that you s[G-B]till recall my n[F]ame[C/G].
And w[F]ipe the mark of [G-B]madness from my f[C/G]ace
[F]Show me that your lo[G-B]ve will never cha[C/G]nge.
And i[F]f my yester[G-B]day is a di[Am]sgrace[D]
[F]Tell me that you'll[G-B] still recall my [F]name.[C/G]
[C/G]Oh tell [F]me that you'll st[G-B]ill recall my na[F]me.[C/G]
[C/G]Oh tell [F]me that you'll s[G-B]till recall my na[F]me.[C/G]
