Verse 1:
Bm                     A
  At the starting line, a never ending race

Flying high above the world

I set my soul on fire

  I cannot stop, see another way
F                F#
  Am I looking for another cheap escape?
Bm                     A
  I've been pushing forward, crushing everything
F                    F#
  It's a push and pull, it's a give and take

Bm       A   F   F#
Flying high above
Bm                    A
