  There's a song that's inside of my soul,
Em7                      D              C9       G   
 C9 Dsus
  It's the one that I’ve tried to write over and over again.
Em7                D        C9 G C9 Dsus
  I'm awake in the infinite cold,
Em7                  D        C9       G     
Dsus
  But you sing to me over and over and over again.

CHORUS:
       E      B         A
  So I lay my head back down,
        E       B
  And I lift my hands and
  A          B    A
  Pray to be only yours,
               B    A
  I pray to be only yours,
    C                  Cmaj7 Em7 D C9 
C9 Dsus
  I know now you're my only hope.


VERSE 2:

  Sing to me the songs of the stars,
Em7              D           C9           G        
Dsus
  Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
Em7                     D           C9  G 
Dsus
  When it feels like my dreams are so far,
Em7                 D              C9          G     
Dsus
  Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.

BRIDGE:
D               Em7
  I give you my destiny,
D                Em7
  I'm giving you all of me.
D            Em7
  I want your symphony,
  Bm                     B
  Singing in all that I am.
         A                  B A
  At the top of my lungs,
                  B   A
  I'm giving it back.
