Back From The Edge

Letter Seventeen

Em - Am7 - Em7+4
am7 - d - g / am7 - d - g - g/f# - em7 (x2) / C
br: d / g d / em x 3

Sometimes the sounds get loud
And the dreams are too real
I can’t always control
The things that I feel
I try to hear your voice
Calling out to me
As you throw me a line
And try tell me I’m fine

You can try to talk me
Back from the edge
And hope that I can hear you
Not the voices instead
Sometimes they seem so real
And I need you right here
To help me stare down
This thing that I fear

A mind’s a scary thing
So many places to hide
And it doesn’t always seem clear
That I’ll survive the night
That’s when I need you there for me
To call me back home
A voice to remind me
That I’m not alone

Then you’re there to talk me
Back from the edge
I’ll try to hear you
Not the voices instead
Sometimes they seem so real
And I’m glad you’re right here
To help me stare down
The things that I fear
