F  Am    F  G  Am
F  Am    F  G  Am

[Verse 1]
                 F                                  Am
Waiting in the wings your courage sings before you falter
                   F                 G               Am
It's just another way to say what's there but never shows
                   F                               Am
It's just another day to lay your sins before the altar
                         F               G           Am
And where it's going to end this time around nobody knows

[Verse 2]
               F                                  Am
Every time it seems that you have gained an understanding
                      F                  G              Am
Those devils at your heels reach up and try to tip the scales
                F                                  Am
Waking from a dream you see it's all been done without you
                  F                G                   Am
And every vain attempt to make it stay is destined to fail

[Chorus]
Am G   G  F    Am     F    Am  G   Am
Fu-ry ra-ges through your restless days
Am     G        F      Am  F  Am
Shades of time that's gone before
Am  G  G F   Am    F   Am   G   Am
Empty cages where the prisoner plays
         Fmaj7                              E
'Til the door swings closed behind for evermore

     G  Am        G   Am
Evermore     Evermore

[Instrumental]
F  Am    F  G  Am

[Verse 3]
                Am             F                  Am
Long before we come of age we yearn to leave the garden
                    F                G                Am
And wrestle with a myth the hand of fate has faintly drawn
                     Am               F               Am
But somewhere on the way we feel our hearts begin to harden
                     F             G                   Am
And see just as we learn to turn around the garden is gone

[Chorus]
Am G   G  F    Am     F    Am  G   Am
Fu-ry ra-ges through your restless days
Am     G        F      Am  F  Am
Shades of time that's gone before
Am  G  G F   Am    F   Am   G   Am
Empty cages where the prisoner plays
         Fmaj7                              E
'Til the door swings closed behind for evermore

     G  Am        G   Am
Evermore     Evermore

[Outro]
