  ^this is the basic riff in the normal song
   played in the same way as the intro

Verse
Bm            
No one can hurt you now
A
In this haven safe and sound
G
No one can save you now
G
From this grace you are drowning in
               D              A
Just hold your breath on your way down

Chorus
D                Bm                       G          D  A
This Fortress Of Tears, I've built for my tears, for you....
D                   Bm                  G           D  A
This Fortress won't fall, I've built it strong, for you....

Riff

Verse
Bm
No one can free you now
A
From the chains around your heart
G
Don't be afraid now
G
Just dive in this emptyness
              D              A   
And hold your breath on your way down

Chorus
