 A minorAm       FF      C majorC        G+G
Try your worst, 'cause i've heard it all

      A minorAm      FF        C majorC        G+G
And just stuck on a brave face and tried to walk tall

        A minorAm         FF           C majorC       G+G
And you can tell me that i've changed when you can look me in the eye

     A minorAm       FF       C majorC   G+G
I've got tricks up my sleeveas I wave goodbye

PRECHORUS
 FF               G+G
I like to think that I am stronger now than I was before

 FF               G+G
But now I'm having trouble showing you the door


CHORUS
 A minorAm   FF  C majorC  G+G
And ohhhh

 A minorAm     FF  C majorC   G+G
I'm on my road

       A minorAm         FF       C majorC        G+G
I've got my map in hand but I just don't know where I stand

       A minorAm     FF         C majorC     G+G
And now I'm here picking my pieces off the ground

 A minorAm         FF           C majorC            G+G
We need to get the negativity slack and let the positivity back

  A minorAm     FF          FF    G+G
I need a smile that isn't fake

 A minorAm      FF         C majorC       G+G
But i'ma need your help for goodness' sake,

 A minorAm    FF   C majorC   G+G
Your help


 A minorAm        FF
I'm sick of being a drifter,

      C majorC             G+G
Being a floater, go-away-and-get-the-boat-er

 A minorAm          FF     C majorC       G+G
No one wants you here, why can't you see

 A minorAm           FF           C majorC         G+G
I was living life through someone else's eyes but now I'm finally back to me


A minorAm FF C majorC G+G

BRIDGE
   A minorAm      FF   G+G
The ground you stand on

   A minorAm        FF        G+G
The ground that looks you in the eye

   A minorAm       FF   G+G
The ground you stand on

   A minorAm       FF        G+G
The ground that you will just walk by
