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

        Dm                 Am        E
I wanna stay up there and close my eyes

(Same picking pattern as for Verse 1)

C                                 G               C
I was born steady in a world that always keeps on changing
C                                           Am      G        C          C
If you don't don't go along for a while one day you become a stranger
C                             G                C
I was born in a world that is told between thе lines
C                                          Am    G          C      C*
So I'll write till I'm finally free from a story that's not mine
