Dm Bb F C

Verse:
Dm                   Bb
How did we get here?
F                                         C
All castaway on a lonely shore
Dm                               Bb
I can see in your eyes, dear
F                                                   C
It’s hard to take for a moment more
We’ve got to

Pre-Chorus:
Dm                               Bb                               F
Burn the ships, cut the ties, send a flare into the night
Am                                                                       Bb
Say a prayer, turn the tide, dry your tears and wave goodbye

Chorus:
F         Gm        Bb
Step into a new day
F                             Gm                             Bb
We can rise up from the dust and walk away
C                             Dm                             Bb
We can dance upon the heartache, yeah
C                             Dm                             Gm
So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships
And don’t you look back

Dm Bb F C

Verse 2:
Dm                             Bb
Don’t let it arrest you
F                                         C
This fear is fear of fallin’ again
Dm                             Bb
And if you need a refuge
F                                            Am
I will be right here until the end
Oh, it’s time to

Say a prayer, turn the tide, dry your tears and wave goodbye

Step into a new day
F                             Gm                              Bb
We can rise up from the dust and walk away

So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships
