Empty Chords

written by Terri Clark
from the album "Fearless"

(intro) A   E   Bm   D (X2)

A                   E
Maybe it's been a little too long
F#m             D
holdin' it in, trying to be strong.
A                    E
Funny the things we bottle up
       F#m                    D
Come streaming out when you feel enough.
Bm                     E
There is a trust the cautious will lack
Bm                                 E
and now that we've touched there's no holding back.

CHORUS
           A             E          Bm             D
I want to call out for love 'til I can't breathe.
           A             E           Bm          D
I want to stare at the truth 'til I can't see.
           A           E             Bm     D
I want to pour out my soul 'til I'm empty, empty

A  E  Bm  D    A  E  Bm  D

Verse 2
When only flesh and bone remain
I'll hold you close then start again.
Feeling nothing but a sweet release
then the ghosts are gone from inside of me.
I've tried to fight it but what can I do?
There's something deeper that surrenders to you

CHORUS

Bridge:
       F#m               C#m
When I touch you, when I hear you
     D                                A   E
how can I doubt when every time I'm near you

CHORUS

(outro) A  E  Bm  D    A  E  Bm  D
