Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 4 half steps down [ -4 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 4 to stay in the same key

                  Dbm             E
It's empty in the valley of your heart
                  Dbm            E
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
                  Dbm
Away from all the fears
            E             B    E       
And all the faults you've left behind


                    Dbm              E
The harvest left no food for you to eat
                  Dbm              E
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
                    Dbm
But I have seen the same
           E        B    E
I know the shame in your defeat


    E      A       E  
But I will hold on hope
    E       A       E  
And I won't let you choke
A            E           B
On the noose around your neck


    Dbm        A           E
And I'll find strength in pain
    Dbm     A         E
And I will change my ways
A            E                   B
I'll know my name as it's called again


             Dbm                      E 
Cause I have other things to fill my time
                 Dbm                  E
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
                  Dbm
Now let me at the truth
           Dbm         B      E
Which will refresh my broken mind


               Dbm                E 
So tie me to a post and block my ears
          Dbm                            E 
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
                          Dbm
I know my call despite my faults
    E          B       E 
And despite my growing fears


    E      A       E  
But I will hold on hope
    E       A       E  
And I won't let you choke
A            E           B
On the noose around your neck


    Dbm        A           E
And I'll find strength in pain
    Dbm     A         E
And I will change my ways
A            E                   B
I'll know my name as it's called again


                    Dbm                   E 
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
                  Dbm             E 
And see the world hanging upside down
                   Dbm
You can understand dependence
         E        B       E 
When you know the maker's hand


   E         A       E  
So make your siren's call
    E    A       E  
And sing all you want
  A        E             B
I will not hear what you have to say


      Dbm     A       E  
Cause I need freedom now
   Dbm A            E  
And I need to know how
   A       E            B 
To live my life as it's meant to be


    E      A       E  
But I will hold on hope
    E       A       E  
And I won't let you choke
A            E           B
On the noose around your neck


    Dbm        A           E
And I'll find strength in pain
    Dbm     A         E
And I will change my ways
A            E                   B
I'll know my name as it's called again
