Verse 1:
          C/GC/G
I'd rather walk alone
          A minorAm
Than stand in a row
              Fmaj7/C
I'd line up everything I own
                  C/GC/G
Decide what should stay and should go

Verse 2:
             C/GC/G
This life was mine to choose
                A minorAm
Yearning to wander through and through
                Fmaj7/C
At times I've been battered and bruised
                C/GC/G
But I'm still breathing in my youth

Chorus:
         DmDm      G+G        A minorAm             E minorEm
Can't you see I'm sorry that I wasn't better at being who you wanted me to be
      Fmaj7/C        G+G           C/GC/G
I've been living in lightning for what seems like eternity

Verse 3:
             C/GC/G
You wear these brooding ghosts
                A minorAm
Tighter and tighter round your throat
                 Fmaj7/C
They're weighing you down like a stone
             C/GC/G
They might never let you go

Chorus:
         DmDm      G+G        A minorAm             E minorEm
Can't you see I'm sorry that I wasn't better at being who you wanted me to be
     Fmaj7/C         G+G           DmDm  G+G  A minorAm   E minorEm
I've been living in lightning for what seems like eternity   ooooohhhh
     Fmaj7/C         G+G           C/GC/G
I've been living in lightning for what seems like eternity
