(0:38) - Verse 1
(A) The wind is down
(D) The ache is gone
(F#m) The ghost inside the glass is just
a ghost
(E) The long, long fight is over now
(A) The pathless road
(D) Has led me to this coast
(F#m) And I am standing on the shore
(E) And I am... still.
(Bm) It’s not a victory
(D) It’s not a prize
(A) It’s just the slow dawning of the
light
(E) Behind my eyes
(Bm) I’m not the man I was
(D) I’m not the man I’ll be
(E) I’m just the second... in between.
(A) This is the stillness, after the
sound
(E) This is the anchor, safe in the
solid ground
(F#m) This is The Light That Stayed
(D) The fire I kept safe
(A) This is the end of the awakening
(E) This is the start of grace
(F#m) I am here in the"Here and Now"
(D) This is the place.
(2:24) - Verse 2
(A) The river taught me how to flow
(D) The analog taught me to feel
(F#m) The footprint taught me how to go
(E) And how to make it real
(A) And the only vow I kept
(D) Through all the dark and dread
(F#m) Was to listen to the silence
(E) Not the voices in my head.
(2:58) - Pre-Chorus
(Bm) It’s not a victory
(D) It’s not a prize
(A) It’s just the slow dawning of the
light
(A) This is the stillness, after the
sound
(E) This is the anchor, safe in the
solid ground
(F#m) This is The Light That Stayed
(D) The fire I kept safe
(A) This is the end of the awakening
(E) This is the start of grace
(F#m) I am here in the"Here and Now"
(D) This is the place.
(D) And the light, the light, the
light...
(A) It wasn't on the mountain
(E) It wasn't in the wires
(A) It wasn't on the mountain
(E) It wasn't in the wires
(F#m) It was the vow, it was the breath
(D) It was the smallest of the fires
(A) And it's burning...
(E) Oh, it's burning...
(E) It's burning in me now...
(A) This is the stillness, after the
sound
(A) This is the solid ground.
(E) This is the grace.
(F#m) The awakening...
(D) ...is over now.
