Chords with lyrics

Intro: A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE

  F# minorF#m
So many things to do and say

But I can't seem to find my way
    D MajorD
But I wanna know how
  F# minorF#m
I know I'm meant for something else

But first I gotta find myself
    D MajorD
But I don't know how

  B minorBm
Oh, why do
        C#m7C#m7
I reach for the stars
         D MajorD
When I don't have wings
          E MajorE
To carry me that far?

       D MajorD      F# minorF#m  E MajorE
I gotta have roots before branches
  D MajorD
To know who I am
     F# minorF#m     E MajorE
Before I know who I wanna be
  D MajorD
And faith
     F# minorF#m   E MajorE
To take chances
  D MajorD
To live like I see
  B minorBm      E MajorE
A augmentedA place in this world
  A augmentedA
For me

 F# minorF#m
Sometimes I don't wanna feel

And forget the pain is real
    D MajorD
Put my head in the clouds
   F# minorF#m
Oh, start to run and then I fall

Seein' I can't get it all
      D MajorD
Without my feet on the ground

         B minorBm
There's always a seed
        C#m7C#m7
Before there's a rose
         D MajorD
The more that it rains
        F# minorF#m E MajorE
The more I will grow

       D MajorD      F# minorF#m  E MajorE
I gotta have roots before branches
  D MajorD
To know who I am
     F# minorF#m    E MajorE
Before I know who I wanna be
  D MajorD
And faith
    F# minorF#m   E MajorE
To take chances
  D MajorD
To live like I see
  B minorBm      E MajorE
A augmentedA place in this world
  A augmentedA  F# minorF#m E MajorE
For me

D MajorD
Whatever comes
        E MajorE
I know how to take it

Learn to be strong
         BB
I won't have to fake it
       F#F#
Oh, you're understandin'
  D MajorD
Oh, but when you come
      E MajorE
And do it best

There ain't nothin'
          BB
To stoppin' east to west

But I'll still
    E MajorE  A augmentedA
Be standing
F# minorF#m     E MajorE
I'll be standing

       D MajorD      F# minorF#m E MajorE
If I have roots before branches
  D MajorD
To know who I am
     F# minorF#m     E MajorE
Before I know who I wanna be
  D MajorD
And faith
    F# minorF#m  E MajorE
To take chances
  D MajorD
To live like I see
 B minorBm       E MajorE
A augmentedA place in this world...


  D MajorD           F# minorF#m  E MajorE
I gotta have roots before branches
  D MajorD
To know who I am
     F# minorF#m     E MajorE
Before I know who I wanna be
  D MajorD
And faith
     F# minorF#m  E MajorE
To take chances
  D MajorD
To live like I see
  B minorBm      E MajorE   A augmentedA
A majorA place in this world
    F# minorF#m E MajorE
For me
A augmentedA    F# minorF#m  E MajorE       A augmentedA
I gotta have roots before branches
F# minorF#m  E MajorE
