[intro – big fuzzy riff, slow stomping drums] Yeah… Mmm, I’ve been down where the night don’t end, Cold wind blowin’ with no damn friend. Road got rough, sky turned black, But I kept on walkin’, never looked back. [verse 1] See, a man can break if he don’t know why, Lose his fire, let the dream run dry. But if you’ve got somethin’ worth bleedin’ for, You can push right through that locked-up door. [chorus – full band, call and response] I got an anchor in the storm! (Yeah!) I got a reason I was born! (Yeah!) When the weight’s too heavy and the nights too long, That’s when my anchor holds on strong. [verse 2] I’ve seen good folks fall by the side, Chasin’ the wind with nothin’ inside. But I found a truth I can’t let go, It’s the seed in my soul, and I let it grow. [chorus – bigger, more grit] I got an anchor in the storm! (Yeah!) I got a reason I was born! (Yeah!) When the fire’s dyin’ and the road feels wrong, That’s when my anchor holds on strong. [guitar solo – soulful bends, sustain, dirty tone] [bridge – drop to bass, kick, and voice] You can chain my hands, you can block my way, But I’ll break those links, I’ll see that day. [final chorus – double-time drums, big outro] I got an anchor in the storm! (Yeah!) I got a reason I was born! (Yeah!) When the weight’s too heavy and the nights too long, That’s when my anchor holds on strong… [outro – riff fades, feedback hum] Holds on strong…
