Verse 1:
           Dsus2   D
I remember days I was younger
 A  Dsus2   Dsus4   A
Growing up with the thunder
NC                 Dsus2   D     A     E
Living inside me
Dsus2   D
I ran fast like a river
A  Dsus2   Dsus4   A
Fell hard like timber
NC                      Dsus2   D    A    E
Hoping that I would see              everything

Pre-Chorus 1:
   Bm
But I can be the one to hold on

And I want to know where to go to find

The place where the eyes and the mind meet
  E       A
Ooh
          D
Where the charge in the sky

Meets ground of mine
  E                      F#m    D
A flash of your light is all I need
  E
Ooh
