Am
   You can light your beacons

Am                          E     E7
   Nail your colours to the mast

Am
   You can send your signals

Am                          E     E7
   Holler warnings loud and fast

        Fmaj7                                         Am
You can shout and scream and howl at the storm in the cold

       Fmaj7                                   Am
But it doesn’t mean much when you’re down in a hole.


Am
   You can lead or follow

Am                         E      E7
   Honour waits behind the door

Am
   It’s the path that matters

Am                      E        E7
   Trodden many times before

          Fmaj7                                           Am
You could hold the course but you know it would take it’s toll

Fmaj7                                      E
Anyway, it doesn’t manner when you’re in a hole.

Am
   There’s no courage without fear

Am                    E     E7
   Only arrogance and might

Am
   Heroes aren’t so selfless

Am                            E        E7
   They just want to sleep at night

Fmaj7                                Am
Spread your wings and fly: free your soul

Fmaj7                                       E
We all have to start by climbing out of the hole.
