G                        C
I survived, a dreadful accident,
     Em                   D
In the car crash of the century,
     G                           C
My shattered hopes, collapsed on cold cement,
     Em                             G                 D
But in the back of the ambulance, I never felt so content,

Chorus:

     Am                          G                  D
A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me,
     Am               G             D
And now my vision can render the scene,
     Am               G                 D
Blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris,
     C                 D                   G
Happiness returned to me, through a grave emergency.

Verse 2:

         G                 C
I tossed and turned, in sterile apathy,
      Em                       D
Until the violets, arrived for me,
         G                           C
The bouquet burst and blossoms filled the room,
               Em
And the place got smaller as they grew taller,
  G               D
And taught me to bloom,

Chorus:

     Am                          G                  D
A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me,
     Am               G             D
And now my vision can render the scene,
     Am               G                 D
Blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris,
     C                             D
Happiness returned to me, through a grave emergency.

Bridge:
         Dm                        C
The curtains decayed, the daylight poured in,
         E                    Am
I was never afraid of the darkness again,
    Dm              C                             G
My burns were third-degree, but I'd been set free,
        D
'Cause grace had finally found its way to me,

Chorus:

     Am                  G               D
A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me,
     Am           G                D
And now my vision can render the scene
     Am             G                    D
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris

      C           D
Happiness returned to me (3x)
                      G
Through a grave emergency
