 When you  came back I knew  you'd have a story
 You need  someone  to ease the pain  of living life
You're  like a soldier  in the fray  seeking shelter
From  all the madness  that you've  seen, raining down now
I  know  things change,  your world has slipped away
I  know  things change,  you're living like a
Soldier  caught  in the fray
 Don't lose  your faith
 It's not so cold,  it's not  too late
 x2
 When you  were naive you were so  invincible
 And you laughed at anyone  and anything that ever  got in your way
But  now the mirror  shows the change,  and you don't see that
You're  sinking back  into the crowd,  an echo faded
And  I never thought I'd see
 You living on your knees
 A slave to some disease
 That holds you captive
And  you can look inside of me
 But the answers that you seek
 And everything you need
 Is all inside you
 x4

[Em] [G] [C] x2

When [Em]you came back I kn[G]ew you'd have a s[C]tory
You n[Em]eed some[G]one to ease the p[C]ain of living life
[Em]You're like a so[G]ldier in the f[C]ray seeking shelter
[Em]From all the m[G]adness that y[C]ou've seen, raining down now

[C]I kn[D]ow things ch[G]ange, your world has slipped away
[C]I kn[D]ow things ch[Em]ange, you're living like a
[C]Soldier c[D]aught in the fr[G]ay
Don't l[Dsus4]ose your fa[Em]ith
It's not so c[C]old, it's n[D]ot too la[Em]te

[Em] [G] [C]  x2

When [Em]you were naive you were s[G]o invincibl[C]e
And you laughed at [Em]anyone and anything that e[G]ver got in your [C]way
[Em]But now the m[G]irror shows the ch[C]ange, and you don't see that
[Em]You're sinking [G]back into the c[C]rowd, an echo faded

[F#m]And I never thought I'd se[D]e
You living on your kn[Bm]ees
A slave to some dis[Abdim]ease

That holds you captive
[F#m]And you can look inside of m[D]e
But the answers that you s[Bm]eek
And everything you n[Abdim]eed

Is all inside you

[Em] [G] [C]  x4
