Sanctuary

• Bm

 
   Bm                       G 
so go ahead and lie to yourself, 
                           A 
and pretend that you?re a ray of light, 
                A 
when you?re a broken candle, 

Bm                             G 
  you?re keeping time with yourself, 
                              A 
when did it all start moving way too fast, 
    A 
for you to handle, 

        Bm                   G 
you?re short on breath but heavy on time, 
     A                        Bm      A 
you lost the words but you found the rhyme, 
      G               A 
it?s all just poetry now, 


the walls are singing, 
Bm    G       A 
hallelujah amen, 

the walls are singing, 
Bm   G       A 
hallelujah amen,

Bm                   G 
it?s so dark in the room, 
                       A 
and the ceilings are high, 

you know the feeling, 
                      Bm 
you?ve been here before, 

Bm                      G 
But it?s a broken old pew, 
                     A 
and it?s an echoing cry, 
                      Bm 
don?t sell yourself short, 
                 G 
on breath and heavy on time, 
     A                       Bm        A 
you lost the words but you found the rhyme, 
      G               A 
it?s all just poetry now, 


the walls are singing, 
Bm    G      A 
hallelujah amen, 

the walls are singing, 
Bm    G      A 
hallelujah amen, 
 

Now's the part where it gets all intense and in the latest version Sam does his speech.  
Basically the chords are 

Bm G A 

or something along those lines. 

    Bm          G 
in time you?ll find, 
               A                       A 
this life?s a painting and you?re the artist, 
    Bm        G 
so open your eyes, 
                A                  A 
it?s never too late to clear your canvas, 

     Bm 
so paint me jealous, 
G 
paint me rage, 
     A                  Bm    A 
for God?s sake paint me anything, 
      G 
just paint, 
              A 
your brush awaits, 

Bm   G        A 
hallelujah amen, 

the walls sing you to sleep, 
Bm   G        A 
hallelujah amen, 
                    Bm        G       A 
one secret meant to keep you safe tonight, 
                   Bm        G       A 
I swear that everything will be alright
