[Verse]
C Am
Brother do you believe in an afterlife
Em
Our souls'll both collide
F C
In some great Elysium, way up in the sky
Am
Free from our shackles, our chains, our mouths, our brains
Em
We'll open all the gates
F C
We will walk careless, straight into the light
| Am | C | Am |
C Am
I've never felt so enlightened
Em
Every page I turn
F C
I only find myself feeling more alone
Am
Posing questions to a silent universe
Em
My very thoughts are cursed
F
They just seem to multiply, forever in my mind
Dm G
Brother don't grow up
Dm F
Brother please never grow up
[Interlude]

[Verse]
Em F C
Just hold out against the night
Em F C
and guard your hope with your life
Dm G
For the darkness, she will come
Dm F
Oh and you have nowhere left to run
C Am G G
Oh but your eyes are wider than mine, and help me to sleep
C Am G G
Just hope that age does not erase all that you've seen
C Am G G
Don't let bitterness become you
C Am G G
Your only hopes are within you
[Outro]
| C | Am | G | G | x2
Em F C
Just hold out against the night
Em F
and guard your hope with your life
