Verse 1:
A                   D
Today I'm sleeping in
F#m                      D
I'll wake up with the world on fire

And I'll listen to music instead of the news

A                       D
Cuz I have been here before
F#m                      D
Chasing dreams you can get so tired
A              F#m                     D  Dm
Too tired to tell the dream's coming true

Chorus:
             A      D
Yeah I got careless
               F#m
I pushed you away
                 D
To live for the day
                   A          D
But tonight I can't bear this
                    F#m
Yeah I'm breaking free
                   D             F#m             A
But what good is free if I cannot share it with you
  G                      D
A cloud on the sun in a sky so blue
     A         F#m
I was careless
       D    Dm
So careless

With you

Verse 2:
A                        D
If I could do this again
F#m                    D
Every chord, every note, every page
A                      F#m                 D      Dm
Every song that I sing
I would sing them for you

A                       D
So I will steady my pen
F#m                           D
Write these words from your busted birdcage
A                           F#m                      D        Dm
And I'll watch the world pass from the bars you broke through

Chorus:
             A      D
Cuz I got careless
               F#m
I pushed you away
                 D
To live for the day
                   A          D
But tonight I can't bear this
                    F#m
Yeah I'm breaking free
                   D             F#m             A
But what good is free if I cannot share it with you
  G                      D
A cloud on the sun in a sky so blue
     A         F#m
I was careless
       D    Dm
So careless

With you

Bridge:
E                Bm
When the gold of daylight breaks
E                 Bm
Feel the sunshine on my face
                  E
Will you take me back
           Bm            Dm
Even after all of my mistakes?

Chorus:
             A      D
Yeah I got careless
               F#m
I pushed you away
                 D
To live for the day
                   A          D
But tonight I can't bear this
                    F#m
Yeah I'm breaking free
                   D             F#m             A
But what good is free if I cannot share it with you
  G                      D
A cloud on the sun in a sky so blue
     A         F#m
I was careless
       D    Dm
So careless

With you
