C Em Am G x4 
 
  
C Em             Am       G 
 Take away my inhibitions  
C Em             Am       G 
 Take away my solitude 
C Em             Am       G 
 Fire me up with your resistance 
C Em       Am    G 
  Put me in the mood 
 
C Em                     Am       G 
 Storm the walls around this prison 
C Em                Am       G 
 Leave the inmates, Free the guards 
C Em                Am       G 
 Deal me up another future 
                   C       Em        Am  G 
 From some brand new deck of cards 
 
 
F             G 
Take the chip off of my shoulder 
C         Cmaj7    Am     
Smooth out all the lines 
F                    G               C Cmaj7 Am 
Take me out among the rustling pines 
 
Till it shines 
 
C Em Am G x2 
 
C Em             Am       G 
 Like an echo down a canyon 
C Em             Am       G 
 Never coming back as clear 
C Em             Am       G 
 Lately I just judge the distance 
        C          Em  Am G 
 Not the words I hear 
 
C Em             Am       G 
 I've been too long on these islands 
C Em             Am       G 
 I've been far too long alone 
C Em             Am       G 
 I've been too long without summer 
          C          Em  Am G 
 In this winter home 
 
 
F               G 
Still if we can make the effort 
C         Cmaj7    Am     
If we take the time 
F                    G               C Cmaj7 Am 
Maybe we can leave this much behind 
 
Till it shines 
 
C Em Am G x6 
 
F               G 
See the rich man lost and lonely 
C         Cmaj7    Am     
Watch him as he dines 
F                    G               C Cmaj7 Am 
Sitting there just testing all the wines 
 
Till It Shines 
 
C Em Am G x16 
 
 
 
Hope this helps :)
