Intro
C D Em Am x2
Verse 1
       C                      D
If I close my eyes, will it come to life?
        Am                   Bm
Is it something I'm dreaming of?
       C                  D               Em
If a steady head doesn't rule my heart,
         Am                    C
will it lead me to somewhere happy enough?
Pre-Chorus 1
            Em              Am           Bm
And I'm a sorry soul in a sinful world
                    C
(and you don't get out alive)
      D                Em             Am
If I meet myself in a half way home,
            Bm
and I'll remember the things you said.
Chorus 1
 C                   D
Love isn't always fair,
                Em              G
but that's no reason to be so cruel to me.
 Am                   G
Hold on to what is there,
                Em      D
and count the saints. 
C D Em Am x2
Verse 2
            C                    D
There's a reason why we keep it all inside.
              Am               Bm
To shield my hopes from the raining sky,
        C                  D              Em
then arrange it all into simple lines.
       Am                    C
To be part of a world where love can reside.
Pre-Chorus 2
         Em                  Am            Bm
And the hopes I hold in my careful hands
                     C
(and they don't get out alive)
       D                  Em         Am
and I gave myself to an honest man
              Bm
Who couldn't keep his promises.
Chorus 2
 C                   D
Love isn't always fair,
                Em              G
but that's no reason to be so cruel to me.
 Am                   G
Hold on to what is there,
                Em
and count the saints. 
                 D
And count the saints, 
and count the saints.
