Altar

[Verso 1]
 
C                        Em 
 Shame had kept me frozen 
                       Bm 
The path already chosen 
                          C 
Just whether I chose to align 
C                           Em 
 I watched my life unfolding 
                        Bm 
Watched it start eroding 
                          C 
Had to learn to dream and die 
 


[Refrão]
 
C 
 With nothing left to offer 
Em 
 I'm standing at the altar 
Bm                          C 
 Of mother, father, daughter 
Awaiting time 
C                           Em 
 I couldn't watch her suffer 
                            Bm 
I know I should've called her 
                          C 
I'm sorry that I chose to hide 
 


[Verso 2]
 
C                   Em 
 Always heavyhearted 

The loved ones gone departed 
Bm                      C 
 Angels circle in the sky 
C                        Em 
 I call out for them often 
                     Bm 
See them in the garden 
                                C 
Search for them in dreams and signs

Bm                          C 
 I'm sorry that I chose to hide
