Joni Was Right chords by Marit Larsen

Verse 1::
      C
I thought gardens were amusement parks

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

Time just sent me off to bed

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

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

F G Am
F G C

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

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

So I went back to try and find

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


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

F G Am
F G C

Bridge::
  Am      G
The cost of being wild and free
  Am   G/B  C
The endless possibilities
  Am      G
The open road in front of me
   Am   G/B   C     F
It's harder than I thought it'd be


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

F G Am
