Intro: 
 
I will find sanctuary  
I will find sanctuary 
I will find sanctuary  
 
Verse:
 
C#m                   G#m                A 
   You left me broken, So many tears I cried for you. 
C#m               G#m        A 
    Tried to understand, All that we've been through 
 
Pre-chorus:
 
C#m  G#m         A                 B 
Lost, confused, Is this hope? Abuse? 
           C#m             G#m   
I'll still shelter you, keep you warm 
A 
Protect you from the storm 
B                              B      B  
Holding you close to my heart 
 
 
E      C#m     A 
I will find sanctuary in your arms 
E      C#m    A 
I will find sanctuary in your arms 
E      C#m         A 
I will find sanctuary in your open arms 
E      C#m      A  
and I will find sanctuary 
 
 
 
( the rest is the same chords as before!) 
Wrapped around you 
The whole world just disappears 
Time stands still when I'm with you 
A moment feels like years 
 
I feel confused 
There's so much to lose. 
My head is fighting with my heart, 
it feels so torn apart 
Holding you close to my heart 
 
I will find sanctuary in your arms 
I will find sanctuary in your arms 
I will find sanctuary in your open arms 
and I will find sanctuary 
 
(Just making it up as I go along 
Feels so right when I'm with you, 
but I know it's wrong.) 
 
I will find sanctuary in your arms 
I will find sanctuary in your arms 
I will find sanctuary in your open arms 
and I will find sanctuary.
