Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Capo on 2nd
🎸 Intro:

D     G


🎸 Verse 1:
  D                             G
Young standing on the edge of 21
                                D
Staring at the man that I've become
           Em                G
Sometimes when I lose my control
 D                                         G
Stone if you blink you'll blow up like a gun
                                D
Jump into conclusions just for fun

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
       Em                 G
And I need somebody to hold
                       D    Em     G
You need somebody to hold
                        D    Em     G
Where the hell did she go?
It kinda makes me feel like

🎸 Chorus:
D
  I wish I could change my name
G
  I wish I could start again
Bm               A
  Fly me to a lonely place
               G
Where you'll never see my face
        Gm
So you never feel the pain of
 D     G
What was
              Bm
When you're standing in the rain
 A
Calling out my name
 G
Nothing's gonna change
      D
What was





🎸 Interlude:
D     G


🎸 Verse 2:
 D                                      G
Cold driving through my neighborhood alone
You're going past the house
             D
But I'm not home this time
   Em                   G
I haven't been in a while
                          D            Em
I haven't been cause I'm far away in another state
 B
Miles away from us
           D                Em
While you try to bear the dying flame
        G
While ashes turn to dust

🎸 Chorus:
D
  I wish I could change my name
G
  I wish I could start again
Bm               A
  Fly me to a lonely place
               G
Where you'll never see my face
        Gm
So you never feel the pain of
 D     G
What was
              Bm
When you're standing in the rain
 A
Calling out my name
 G
Nothing's gonna change
      D
What was

🎸 Verse 3:
 D
Let me, start over
                                   G
To the moment that I left you in tears
                                      Gm
It's a memory that will haunt me for years
                                       D
For years, for years, for years, for years
                G
Oh, it's still
               Gm
Oh, it's still
      D    Em     G
What was

🎸 Outro:
                      D    Em     G
You need somebody to hold
                          D
And where the hell did I go?
