C G C
I was born old in a world as young as a growing child
C Am G C C
Everybody is seeking something and I don't know where to hide
C G C
I was born calm in a world as loud as a crowded street
C Am G C C
Every time I go out there oh it carries me off my feet
C G C
And I was born dark in a world at white as my neighbors' wall
C Am G C C*
All this time I've been waiting for a ship to take me home
🎸 Chorus: (Strum twice offbeat. If you listen to the song it's pretty clear)
Am G C
I don't want to be afraid no more
Dm Am E
I wanna break out and rise up to the skies
(1rst guitar can play triplets at "skies", also offbeat with the strumming)
