[Fm] I _ _ _ [Em] _ almost _ believed [G] _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [C#] _

_ [A#m] _ _
_ [C#] All the sorrow [D#] consumed _ _ _ To _ _ peace among _ men I never [D#m] conceived
_ _ _ [G#] _ But I'm a ship [Gm] in _ the [D] _ [E] thick of it _ _ _ [G] all _
I'll [G#] _ _ keep _ _ _
[Gm] faith [D] _ _ _ [Gm] _ Like [C] so many souls who [E] won't be drowned
[Gm] By evil [G#] in the [Fm] world _ _ I [G#] _ _ have _ _ _ _ _ faith [A#] _ _ _

[C#] All the [D#] path [A#m] to peace [Cm] is endless _ _ [A#m] _ _ _ [A#]
Choosing to [G#] close our eyes [A#m] makes [D] our [D#]
thoughts _ _ _ limitless
But if [G#] something's enough _ _ _ [E]
I'll give _ _ up
[C] _
