Verse 1
Okay. (C major)
Okay. (F major) (C major)
I'm gonna be honest
I was runnin' scared (A minor)
Weight of a promise
Hanging over my head (F major)
What if I fail?
What if I landed? (C major)
(F major) I (C major) wanna reach out
cuz there's so much (A minor) to learn
I've been paying dues
and I think it's my turn
(D minor) I know I'm a fire (F major) just wait an (C major) d turn
So come on and sing (F major) in a chorus
Life happens for us
and (C major) there ain't such a long way to go
I used to think that I was
(F major) caught in the middle
of some kind of riddle
Or (D minor) maybe some (C major) kind of big game
Sure don't wanna know the rules
and (F major) all these flashing lights (D minor) in my brain
In my mind
I couldn't de (C major) cide which way to turn
Or if I should just hide
all (D minor) the (F major) best things
They take a little time (C major) guitar
(F major) For (C major) most of my life
I thought I wasn't enough
(A minor) Not worthy of speaking
Not worthy of love (F major)
I pushed up against it
Waiting for (D minor) my (C major) skin to heal
My illusion to be broken
Every day is like a reset button and
I (A minor) have to wait for the question
and the pain asking me (F major) to (D minor) change
(F major) I (D minor) can change
I can change
I can change
(C major) I can change
I can change so come on (F major) sing in the chorus
life happens for us
and (C major) there ain't such
It's a long way to go
I used to think that I was
(F major) caught in the middle
Of some kind of riddle
Or (D minor) maybe some (C major) kind of big game
Sure don't want to know the rules
And (F major) all these flashing light (D minor) s in my brain
In my mind
I couldn't de (C major) cide which way to turn
Or if I should just hide
Or all (F major) the best things, they take a little time (C major)
I feel (F major) the fear rise in my chest
I'm (C major) not perfect, I'm not the best
I feel (F major) the (D minor) fear rise (F major) in my chest (C major)
Oh, (D minor) words chatter round in my brain
What a sound, can I (C major) call it what it is?
Just a system predisposed for fear
(F major) I can't turn it off, I can't turn it (D minor) off
So I (C major) change the channel
and I listen to the silence
Space (F major) in (D minor) my heart, in my soul, in my mind
In my (C major) body, in my breath, in space, in time
Oh, (F major) maybe this is real life
Maybe this is (D minor) real life
May (C major) be this is real life
So come on (F major) and sing
In the (D minor) chorus, life (F major) happens for (D minor) us
And (C major) there ain't such a long way to go
I used to think that (F major) I was caught
In the middle of (D minor) some (F major) kind of riddle
(D minor) Or (C major) maybe some kind of big game
Sure don't wanna know the rules
And (F major) all these flashing light (D minor) s
In my brain, in my mind
I (F major) couldn't de (C major) cide which way to turn
or if I should just hide
Oh, (F major) all the best things, they take a little time
All (C major) the best things, they take a little time
Oh, may (F major) be this is real life
May (C major) be this is real life
May (F major) be this is (D minor) real (F major) life
Maybe (C major) this is real life
