	  		Intro: 

Verse: 
D#                                  Bb F           
We set out to find something to hold 
D#                                      Bb F    
When seeking truth the answer is the road 
D#                                        Bb F    
When seeking wisdom the journey is your home 
D#                                    
Fight through the wind, fight through the rain 
                      Bb F    
Fight through the cold 


D#                                     Bb F     
We left ourselves behind on dancing wire 
D#                                              Bb F     
The loved ones we left back home will be our choir 
D#                                                Bb F     
Let the doubters be, The stick, the thorn, the briar 
D#                                                    
Fight through the wind, fight through the rain 
               Bb F 
Dance in the fire 

Pre Chorus: 
  
D#            Bb F 
Don't bless me 
D#                Bb F 
No, don't bless me 
   D#                      Bb F 
We don't want your blessings 
 D#                      Bb F 
Don't bless me 
D#                Bb F 
No, don't bless me 
   D#                      Bb F Gm 
We don't want your blessings 


     Bb          Dm            Gm 
Give me the pen, Give me the sword 
     Bb                 Dm                    Gm 
Let me cut away the darkness, and pin it to the wall 
     Bb              Dm            Gm 
Let us sing a song of beauty as before 
     Bb          Dm                              Gm 
Give us the wind, give us the wind, Give us the storm  (Repeat and second time end on D#) 


Verse:  

Bb               F  
Pushing back the lake 
D# 
We found something more 
Bb               F  
Like a song In a word 
 D# 
Like the heartbreak of birds 

Bb                 F  
And there, beneath the sand 
D# 
Looking like the rain 
Bb                 F  
We found some god 
D# 
And the will to change 

Bb                 F                D# 
We set out to find something to hold 
Bb                 F                D# 
When seeking truth the answer is the road 
Bb                 F                   D# 
When seeking wisdom the journey is your home 
Bb                                      F                
Fight through the wind, fight through the rain 
        D# 
Fight through the cold 

Pre Chorus: 
  
D#            Bb F 
Don't bless me 
D#                Bb F 
No, don't bless me 
   D#                      Bb F 
We don't want your blessings 
 D#                      Bb F 
Don't bless me 
D#                Bb F 
No, don't bless me 
   D#                      Bb F Gm 
We don't want your blessings 


     Bb          Dm            Gm 
Give me the pen, Give me the sword 
     Bb                 Dm                    Gm 
Let me cut away the darkness, and pin it to the wall 
     Bb              Dm            Gm 
Let us sing a song of beauty as before 
     Bb                     Dm                              
Give us the wind, give us the wind, Give us the storm
