Joni Was Right chords by Marit Larsen

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1::
      C majorC
I thought gardens were amusement parks

Spider webs were works of art
  FF               C majorC
And war was just another game we played

Time just sent me off to bed

Love was just a word we said
  FF                  C majorC
I thought someone would always keep me safe
      G+G              C majorC
And that I might become an astronaut some day

Chorus::
FF          A minorAm     G+G          C majorC
But growing up is falling down and landing safely on the ground
FF        A minorAm     C majorC
Waking up in the dead of night
     G+G    FF
Thinking "oh my God
      C majorC  FF G+G A minorAm
Joni was right"

FF G+G A minorAm
FF G+G C majorC

Verse 2::
C majorC
Between the downfalls and the deepest fears

Lessons learned the hardest ways
  FF                 C majorC
I hoped that there was something left to save

So I went back to try and find

The innocence I left behind
    G+G         C majorC
And realized my paradise was paved


Chorus::
FF         A minorAm       G+G       C majorC
But growing up is falling down and landing safely on the ground
FF        A minorAm     C majorC
Waking up in the dead of night
     G+G     FF
Thinking "oh my God
    C majorC    FF G+G A minorAm
Joni was right"

FF G+G A minorAm
FF G+G C majorC

Bridge::
  A minorAm      G+G
The cost of being wild and free
  A minorAm   G/BG/B  C majorC
The endless possibilities
  A minorAm      G+G
The open road in front of me
   A minorAm   G/BG/B   C majorC     FF
It's harder than I thought it'd be


Chorus::
          A minorAm       G+G       C majorC
But growing up is falling down and landing safely on the ground
FF        A minorAm     C majorC
Waking up in the dead of night
     G+G    FF
Thinking "oh my God
     C majorC  FF G+G A minorAm
Joni was right"
