Verse 1:

G Always thought I'd F Cross that river E The other side F Distant now G As I got close it F Turned and widened E F Horizon now, fading out C Drifting in the undertow F Can't spot a figure on dry land C And afterthoughts of safety F When in truth, none to be had G F E F None to be had

Verse 2:

G I used to tell time F By my shadow E 'Til the thunderclouds F They took the stage G These days will end as F Do the lights rays E Another read of the F Same page C Wide awake through This deepest night F Still waiting on the sun C As the hours seem to multiple F Find a star to solider on C Living beneath a Lions paw F Knowing nothing can be tamed G F E F Can be tamed

Verse 3:

G F I want this dream to last forever E F A wish denied to lengthen our time G F I wish this moment was neverending E F Let it be a lie that all futures die C While the government Thrives on discontent F And there's no such thing as clear C Proselytizing and profitizing F As our will all but disappears C Folded over, forced in a choke hold F Outnumbered and held down C And all these talk of rapture F Look around at the promise now G Here and now F Here and now E Can't hold me down F G F Can't hold me down E Won't hold us down F Won't hold us down

Bridge:

G Live it out Let it out F Get it out Shout it out E Won't hold us down F G Won't hold us down
Final Share the light F Won't hold us down Share the light E Won't hold us down Share the light F G Won't hold us down Share the light F Won't hold us down Share the light E Won't hold us down Share the light F G Won't hold us down Share the light F Won't hold us down Share the light E Won't hold us down Share the light F G Won't hold us down Hold Us Down
