Intro:

  F C C , F C C , F C C F Dm Dm C C F

C        F     Dm      Dm 
This and who I used to be
      C      C       F      C 
Don't matter much at all to me.
    C       F      Dm         Dm
The pit you dug to plant your feet's
  C       C       F    C 
a far cry from my destiny.

             F
Not even the clouds,
             C
Not even the past,
             C        F      
Not even the hands of God
      Dm      Dm        C 
could hold me back from you.

F C C  

C        F      Dm     Dm 
Dark and lonely is the ride
    C     C      F     C 
the devil always by my side.
       C        F        Dm     Dm 
Though no match for what lies between
    C          C
the thought of you
     F         C
your trust for me.

             F
Not even the sun,
                C
A bullet from a gun.

    C       F         Dm          Dm
No, nothing that this world could bring or
C    C       F         C
Anything someone could do
      F       C         C C C
Could hold me back from you.

F C C , F C C , F C C F Dm Dm C C C 

   C      F           Dm     Dm 
No can of gold placed in my hand,
    C       C      
the largest find 
         F        C C C
with the greatest sum.
       C          F     
Though some would say
     Dm       Dm
it'd ease our pain,
C       C       F        C 
We know that it can't be done.

             F
Not even the sun,
             C
Not even the clouds,
             F
Not even the past

    C       F         Dm          Dm
No, nothing that this world could bring or
C    C       F         C
Anything someone could do
      F       C         C 
Could hold me back from you,
      F       C         C 
Could hold me back from you,
      F       C         C C C
Could hold me back from you.
