D G D


🎸 Verse 1:
D       G             D
 I need peace, I need hope, I need guidance
D       G          D
 I need more than myself
D       G             D                   A
 I need light, I need life, I need what I never felt


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
Bm          A            G
Sisters and brothers are picking sides
    Bm          A           G
And both of our mothers are terrified
    Bm         A         G
And I'm crying out to an empty sky
Em D A
Tell me

🎸 Chorus:
                   D
If I hit the ground
                Em D  A
And I fall down to my knees
                   D
Would you hear the sound?
              Em    D    A
Am I crazy to think that we
                 D
Could make it out?
             Em D A
Am I crazier to believe
                       D G D
There's a middle ground?


🎸 Verse 2:
D       G          D
 I'm so up, I'm so down, I'm so broken
D       G       D
 I'm so tired I can't sleep
D        G             D                      A
 I'm not mine, I'm not yours, I'm not sure of anything


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
Bm          A            G
Sisters and brothers are picking sides
    Bm          A           G
And both of our mothers are terrified
    Bm         A         G
And I'm crying out to an empty sky
Em D A
Tell me

Would you hear the sound?
              Em    D    A
Am I crazy to think that we
                 D
Could make it out?

I don't need someone to love
       Em
I just need someone to live for
Bm            D
Middle ground, there's a middle ground
      G
On my knees where I belong
       A
Please tell me


🎸 Chorus:
                   D
If I hit the ground

Would you hear the sound?
              Em    D    A
Am I crazy to think that we

Could make it out?

Am I crazier to believe
