  [chorus; main pattern]
  Gmaj7         Em7    |Bm
      I stand beside you, I face the future
  Gmaj7          Em7  |Bm
      I'll admit to you I am afraid
  
  I am afraid as I stand beside you
  I have denied you, I am afraid

  [verse]
  Bm                 |Bmadd4
    I am not drunk now, I am not pilled down
  Gmaj7                  |Bmii
    My window's wound down, I am not brainwashed
  
  I am not running, I am not hiding
  My bet's still riding, I am afraid

  ||:Gmaj7  Em7  |Bm     :||Bm     |
  
  I swing you high-o, I swing you low-a
  I see your eye-o, I see your grow-a
  I hear you crying, your brother's dying
  Be no more lying, I am afraid
  
  [interlude]
  |F  Dm |C  Am7 |F Bb |Ab  C# |F# Eb |Bb Bm |    |
  
  I am afraid as I stand beside you
  I have denied you, I am afraid
  I stand beside you, I face the future
  I'll admit to you I am afraid
  
  By my religion I stand here naked
  I cannot fake it, with God as witness
  My little children who wait for feeding
  I watch you bleeding, I am afraid
  
  I am afraid as I stand beside you
  I have denied you, I am afraid
  I stand beside you, I face the future
  I'll admit to you I am afraid
