[VERSE]
Am              C
I'm finding my heart
           Am
Using my hands
                       C
You're my feet on the ground
          Am
My footprints

Am            G
From where I began
                   D
I still carry your love
            F
I feel your love

[PRE-CHORUS]
Am
We start running, running
C
To escape this town
G                               D
We don't know where we're going 'til we turn 'round
Am
And I keep on running, running
C
I can't slow down
             D                 F
And if I'm lost where shadows fall

[CHORUS]
     C
You light me up
            Am
When all I see is darkness
     C
You light me up
          Am
When I'm down
           F
And if I fall apart
                          Am
You know where to find my pieces
F                   G
When they can't be found

[VERSE]
Am             C
Keep my eyes shut
               Am
Safe in this trust
                    C
You're all that I need
       Am
My senses

Am         G
Shining on me
                     D
I still carry your love
              D
I feel your love

[PRE-CHORUS]
Am
We start running, running
C
To escape this town
G                               D
We don't know where we're going 'til we turn 'round
Am
And I keep on running, running
C
I can't slow down
             D                 F
And if I'm lost where shadows fall

[CHORUS x2]
     C
You light me up
            Am
When all I see is darkness
     C
You light me up
          Am
When I'm down
           F
And if I fall apart
                          Am
You know where to find my pieces
F                   G
When they can't be found

[INSTRUMENTAL] Am Em G F

[BRIDGE]
Am              C
I'm finding my heart
          Am
Using my hands
                        C
You're my feet on the ground
C
My footprints
Am
From where I began
G                   D
I still carry your love
D            F
I feel your love


[CHORUS x2]
     C
You light me up
            Am
When all I see is darkness
     C
You light me up
          Am
When I'm down
           F
And if I fall apart
                          Am
You know where to find my pieces
F                   G
When they can't be found

[OUTRO]
Am              C
I'm finding my heart
          Am
Using my hands
                        C
You're my feet on the ground
C
My footprints
