Capo on 1st

Intro:
G+G G/F# E minorEm D MajorD x2


Chorus::
G+G      G/F#   E minorEm
I'm heading for the other side
      D MajorD        G+G
Where the light is always right
G+G          G/F#   E minorEm
Where we don't have all these heavy plights
     D MajorD     G+G
And the loving overrides
            G/F#    E minorEm
And tho' I'm told this time will never come
 D MajorD      G+G
I want it anyhow
      G/F#    E minorEm
I'm going towards the better life
     D MajorD      G+G  G/F#
And I'm ready for it now

Verse 1::
E minorEm      D MajorD     G+G  G/F#
Pent up like water in a dam
E minorEm      D MajorD      G+G  G/F#
Angry like heavy metal songs
E minorEm       D MajorD         G+G G/F#
Messed up like all this news of guns
E minorEm        D MajorD
That like to get drawn


Chorus::
G+G      G/F#   E minorEm
I'm heading for the other side
      D MajorD        G+G
Where the light is always right
G+G          G/F#   E minorEm
Where we don't have all these heavy plights
     D MajorD     G+G
And the loving overrides
            G/F#    E minorEm
And tho' I'm told this time will never come
 D MajorD      G+G
I want it anyhow
      G/F#    E minorEm
I'm going towards the better life
     D MajorD      G+G  G/F#
And I'm ready for it now

Verse 2::

E minorEm     D MajorD        G+G  G/F#
Seeing the problems here at hand
E minorEm       D MajorD        G+G   G/F#
Caught up with useless news and posts
E minorEm      D MajorD       G+G   G/F#
Helpless and feeling like a ghost
E minorEm      D MajorD
Wearing nice clothes

Bridge:
A minorAm     D MajorD
In these modern times
G+G          A minorAm
where we're disconnected from
      D MajorD
Ourselves and this land
G+G            A minorAm
And we're always on the run
    D MajorD       G+G       A minorAm
Can we turn about and notice what we are?
           C/GC/G  A minorAm C/GC/G G+G
Living beings in the stars


Chorus:
G+G      G/F#   E minorEm
I'm heading for the other side
      D MajorD        G+G
Where the light is always right
G+G          G/F#   E minorEm
Where we don't have all these heavy plights
     D MajorD     G+G
And the loving overrides
            G/F#    E minorEm
And tho' I'm told this time will never come
 D MajorD      G+G
I want it anyhow
      G/F#    E minorEm
I'm going towards the better life
     D MajorD      G+G  G/F#
And I'm ready for it now

Outro:
G+G G/F# E minorEm D MajorD
