               My ammunition won't  load into my gun
               My inhibitions, they fall like the weight from a stone

    A/D                 A/D                     Gbmaj7    Gbmaj7
You lead my heart away, like a homeless, dusted fool

    A/D                     A/D                         Gbmaj7    Gbmaj7

    Oh, how it deepens

D5 (A/D)           C#5  (A/D)  B5                (Gbmaj7)    (Gbmaj7)
    Are you a satellite?     A shooting star, or a dove?

D5         (A/D)       C#5        (A/D) B5                (Gbmaj7)
    Did we put you way up there or did God send you down from above?

(Gbmaj7)
Above....


(Repeat Pre-chorus)

D5       A5   B5   G5
    Your mystery..... burns me up like the sun

D5       A5
    Your mystery.....


Bridge:
(Split into 2 parts. Part one is guitar 1 playing power chords
                     Part two is guitar 2 playing a lead part)


Part 1:

B5       A5                 G5
    Mine eyes have seen the glory of a love that does transcend

B5       A5                 G5                   A5
    Mine eyes have seen the worst inside of man

B5          A5             G5
    And the fear is like a fallen bridge, a broken promise

B5          A5              G5                            G5
    And the proof is in the bloodshot eyes of the one who failed to see


Part 2:
