Transpose chords:
It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears and all the faults youve left behind
The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal you meateater you see
But I have seen the same I know the shame in your defeat
CHORUS
But I will hold on hope and I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain and I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
VERSE 2
Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth which will refresh my broken mind
So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults and despite my growing fears
CHORUS
But I will hold on hope and I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain and I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
VERSE 3
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence when you know the maker's hand
Bridge
So make your sirens call and sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say
Cause I need freedom now and I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be
CHORUS
But I will hold on hope and I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain and I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

About this song: The Cave
"The Cave" is performed by the band Mumford & Sons, a London folk quartet. The track was first released in 2009, on their Sigh No More album. Its a pounding tale of hope and defiance, starting with gently picked acoustic and this gradually escalates into a huge wall of sound with a myriad of strange and traditional instruments.
