They Don't Need To Understand chords by Andy Black

Capo on 5th fret

G
Growing strong
The voice of my father said
D/F#
Don't give up, don't be forgotten
Em7
This hell on earth
                             C9
I just wanna run away

G
They told me dreams don't grow from here
D/F#
Stay alone, count your fears
Em7                                             C9
Somewhere down the line I might figure it out

Am
Singing all my songs
Em
To bedroom mirrors
Em7                                        C9
Deep inside my heart I'm still here

G                                    G
We're always running away
                                                       D/F#
And we don't even stop to think about it
                               Em7
The world's in our hands, yeah
   C9
They don't need to understand
   G
We do it in our own way
                                 D/F#
No matter what they try to say about it
                               Em7
We've got our own plans, yeah
   C9
They don't need to understand
  C9
OOH OOH OOH OOH
  G
They don't need to understand
  C9
OOH OOH OOH OOH

G
It may be tough, almost killed me
     D/F#
At least that's how I'll remember the story
Em7                                                   C9
Over the years I've forgotten how it was

G
But I survived and I won't walk down
D/F#
The same old road that they all followed
Em7                                                  C9
It only leads to a life not meant for me

Am
Singing all my songs
Em
To bedroom mirrors
Em7                                  C9
Deep inside my heart I'm here

                                      G
We're always running away
                                                       D/F#
And we don't even stop to think about it

The world's in our hands, yeah
   C9
They don't need to understand

   C9
They don't need to understand

Am
Streets of my hometown
Seem strange now
 Em
They feel like a distant memory
 Am
I'm always fine 'cause I know you're trying
  C9
But you can never take this dream from me

                                  G
We're always running away
                                                       D/F#
