           E                   G#m
Let those fools be loud, let alarms ring out
            B                   E
'Cause you cut through all the noise
         E                    G#m
Let the days be dark, let me hate my work
            B                   E
'Cause you cut through all the noise

               G#m
Bring me some hope
       B              E
By wandering into my mind
              G#m
Something to hold onto
 B                      E
Morning, noon, day, or night

Chorus:
              E              B
You were the light that is blinding me
           F#                      G#m
You're the anchor that I tie to my brain
                E              B
'Cause when it feels like I'm lost at sea
            F#                    G#m
You're the song I sing again and again
         E            G#m
All the time, all the time
F#                      G#m
I think of you all the time

Let the parties end when we lose our friends
'Cause you cut through all the noise
Let the years roll on 'till the static comes
'Cause you cut through all the noise

Bring me some hope
By wandering into my mind
Something to hold onto
Morning, noon day, or night

Chorus:
You are the light that is blinding me
You're the anchor that I tied to my brain
'Cause when it feels like I'm lost at sea
You're the song I sing again and again
All the time, all the time
I think of you all the time
All the time, all the time
I think of you all the time

              G#m
Bring me some hope
       B              E
By wandering into my mind
              G#m
Something to hold onto
 B                       E
Morning, noon, day, or night

Chorus:
You are the light that is blinding me
You're the anchor that I tied to my brain
'Cause when it feels like I'm lost at sea
You're the song I sing again and again
All the time, all the time
I think of you all the time
All the time, all the time
I think of you all the time
