[Verso 1]

F 
I've been looking for the golden truth 
          C                F 
I've been filled with good intent 
F 
I held up the torch of love 
           C                     F 
And I have tried to do the right thing 
 

[Refrão]

Dm        C            F 
But as my hands slowly lost their grip 
Dm          C                   Bb 
All I could hear from deep within 
F 
Was the thunder of all my guilt 
        C            F 
And the echoes of my sins 


[Verso 2]
 
F 
Yeah I have bragged about what I have done 
             C                   F 
Of what I've seen and where I've been 
F 
You know I had friends stand up for me 
           C           F 
When I did nothing for them (I did nothing) 


[Refrão]

Dm        C     F 
But as I slowly lost my way 
Dm         C              Bb 
The church bells were still ringing 
F 
Like distant thunder of all of my guilt 
        C            F 
And the echoes of my sins

[Verso 3]

F 
You know, I have walked in the shadow of my self 
          C         F 
I've been afraid of everything 
F 
And you have watched me play without the joy 
     C              F 
That makes me who I am 


[Refrão]

Dm       C           F 
But as I slowly gave away my life 
Dm      C               Bb 
I could hear the angels sing 

F 
So much louder than the thunder of my guilt 
        C            F 
And the echoes of my sins 
F 
So much louder than the thunder of my guilt 
        C            F 
And the echoes of my sins
