F#m                                                   C#m                                     
  Later that day we made our way to the old cathedral door 
 
A flame, a figure, a shadow 
       
Walked away towards the tower alone 
F#m 
  We must be close nearby 
 
Hope cannot find our own way 
        C#m 
Through dark, it's cold, I'm told it's gray 
                                 A 
There's a light that never grows dim 
 
 
 
       B               F#m                                        A 
But if all can be made right there's still a chance on New Years' Day 
       B                       F#m                               A 
And if Grace were here I would love to see her face somehow, someway 
       B                F#m 
And if all is well that means there's still a chance in hell 
 
 
 
        A               B                     F#m 
You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine 
         A            B                    F#m 
There is shelter, shelter from the mire of life 
A              B            F#m 
Claiming sanctuary from the fire that drove you in 
        A               B                     F#m 
You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine 
 
 
 
F#m 
  Climbing the stairs towards heaven 
                            C#m 
Making our own way into the room 
 
Empty, barren 
 
Not another soul in sight 
F#m 
  Then when the moon came crawling 
                              C#m 
There in the night, a great divide 
 
A whisper, a motion, a calling 
 
We're the 99 all right 
 
 
 
A        B               F#m                                        A 
  But if all can be made right there's still a chance on New Years' Day 
       B                       F#m                               A 
And if Grace were here I would love to see her face somehow, someway 
       B                F#m 
And if all is well that means there's still a chance in hell 
 
 
 
        A               B                     F#m 
You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine 
         A            B                    F#m 
There is shelter, shelter from the mire of life 
A              B            F#m 
Claiming sanctuary from the fire that drove you in 
        A               B                     F#m

F#m 
  Now a tradition said 
                     C#m 
Buying penance did a wrong and right 
 
A great collapse 
 
Great collapse 
 
 
 
        A               B                     F#m 
You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine 
         A            B                    F#m 
There is shelter, shelter from the mire of life 
A              B            F#m

        A               B                     F#m 
You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine
