[Verse 1]
F
We all hold on to something, Reach out for something, When all hope seems lost
F
Some cry out to heaven, Some keep forgettin’ to reach out and touch
F
Shattered trust and broken vows, Make a run for higher ground, You’re only lost until you’re found
F
Thru the dark and running scared, When it seems that no one’s there to answer your prayers
C Bb F
For all that you want, there’s a time and place.
[Chorus]
G# Bb F
One leap of faith sometimes that’s all it takes, One ray of light to split the night
G# Bb F
When you’re kicked off the stage of life, Face in the dirt, get on your feet, we all get hurt
[Verse 2]
F
One more pill to kill the pain, One last drink to keep you from going insane, But the pain remains
F
Desperate deeds for desperate times, What’s the point of running when there’s nowhere to hide,
C Bb F
No guiding light, For all that you want, there’s a time and place
[Chorus]
G# Bb F
One leap of faith sometimes that’s all it takes, One ray of light to split the night
G# Bb F
When you’re kicked off the stage of life, Face in the dirt, get on your feet, we all get hurt
[Bridge]
G# Bb F G
There’s no easy way, let’s just hope that one day, There will be a place for us to stay
G# Bb F G F
No more pain, no sorrow, Just home instead, Somewhere to lay down your head
F
We all hold on to something, Reach out for something
F
Some cry out to heaven, Some keep forgettin’ to reach out and touch, Reach out and touch
[Chorus]
G# Bb F
One leap of faith sometimes that’s all it takes, One ray of light to split the night
G# Bb F
When you’re kicked off the stage of life, Face in the dirt, get on your feet, we all get hurt
Bb F
you get on your feet, cuz we all get hurt; you’re not the only one
F
We all hold on to something, Reach out for something, When all hope seems lost
F
Some cry out to heaven, Some keep forgettin’ to reach out and touch

Shattered trust and broken vows, Make a run for higher ground, You’re only lost until you’re found

Thru the dark and running scared, When it seems that no one’s there to answer your prayers

For all that you want, there’s a time and place.
