E/Cmin | Emaj7 | E/Cmin | Emaj7

E/Cmin        Emaj7
 Take me down to the underground

E/Cmin                  Emaj7
 Won´t you take me down to the underground

A5
Why oh why, there is no light

A5
And if I can´t sleep, can you hold my life

   Esus2  Dmin/E5  Csus2  Bsus2
And all I see´s you

A5
And all I see is you


E/Cmin | Emaj7 | E/Cmin | Emaj7


E/Cmin          Emaj7
  And take my hand, I lost where I began

    E/Cmin
In my heart I know all my faults

      Emaj7       E
Will you help me understand

A
 And believe in you

        Gmin
You´re the other half of me

Csus2           Bsus2
Soothe… and heal…

     A
When you sleep when you dream

        Bsus2             Bsus2
I´ll be there if you need me, 

           Bsus2
whenever I hear you sing

A5         Emaj7  A         Esus2
There is a sun,      it´ll come, 

   Dmin/E5   Csus2    Bsus2      A5
the sun, I hear them call me down

  Esus2          Dmin/E5
I held you once, a love that once,

Csus2          Bsus2  
And life had just began

A5
And you´re all I see

  Esus2           Dmin/E5        Csus2
And trumpets blew, and angels flew…

       Bsus2
On the otherside

     A5
And you´re all I see

     Gmin5
And you´re all I need

        Fmin5                E
There´s a love that god puts in your heart
