Intro: *Pick* Em D/F# G C Em G D/F#

Verse 1:
Em  D/F#      G                    C
Wake up in a new day but it don’t feel that new
Em  D/F#     G                      C
Same faces around me with the same point of view
Em                     G
Everything is perfect, everything’s okay
     C
Just swallow the lies and let your emotions fade
       Em   D/F#       G               Aadd9
But my heart won’t be quiet, I feel a change

Hook:
Am                C
No more black and white
                G         D/F#
This life’s too colorful, beautiful
Am                    D*
Don’t know what lies ahead but            *Strum once

Chorus:
Em D/F#    G              D         Am
I’m ready now, it’s time gotta go, gotta get out
Em D/F#       G      D                 Am
And leave my fear behind nothing left for me here can’t stick around
C             Em          G            D
My dreams are loud and my heart’s wide awake
    Am            C*
And all I know is I’m not meant to be silent        *Strum once

*Pick* Em D/F# G C

Verse 2:
Em  D/F#      G                    C
Wake up to a new voice telling me where to go
Em        D/F#   G                           C
It sounds like I got no choice but to keep on this road
Em D/F# G
Got my own opinion, my own words to say
C
Got my own visions, so I know I can’t stay
        Em   D/F#       G      Aadd9
There’s no looking back now, I feel a change

Em D/F#    G              D         Am
I’m ready now, it’s time gotta go, gotta get out
Em D/F#       G      D                 Am
And leave my fear behind nothing left for me here can’t stick around
C             Em          G            D
My dreams are loud and my heart’s wide awake
    Am            C*
