Magnificent chords by Heather Nova

Verse 1:
C                    Am
What are the lessons I'm here to learn?
C                              Am
I've travelled all these years only to return
 F                                 Dm
And I feel like I'm small again, like I'm that little girl again
 F                         C
Wondering  enough again, how can this be?

Chorus:
G                                  Am
All I know is that trouble sets me free
 G                         Am
I lose myself and finally I see
 F    G                C
I don't deserve this, I must preserve me

Verse 2:
C                       Am
Why is the mountain top so out of reach?
C                          Am
I'm in the foothills still looking up at the peak
 F                         Dm
And I feel like I'm weak again, insecure incomplete again
 F                               C
All the wounds that I thought were gone, why don't we heal?

Chorus:
G                               Am
Blaming all the things I cannot change
G                              Am
Patterns in my mind remain the same
 F      G                    C
Still swimming upstream, when it's all up to me

Verse 3:
 G                                Am
We fail ourselves just to please, betray ourselves so easily
 F            G          C
Why can't we see, we are magnificent?
 G                              Am
We lose ourselves to be wrong, convince ourselves that we are wrong
 F            G          C
Why can't we see, we are magnificent?

Instrumental:
C Am C Am
F Dm F C

Chorus:
G                                  Am
All I know is that trouble sets me free
 G                         Am
I lose myself and finally I see
 F    G                C
I don't deserve this, I must preserve me

Verse 4:
 G                                Am
We fail ourselves just to please, betray ourselves so easily
 F            G          C
Why can't we see, we are magnificent?
 G                              Am
We lose ourselves to be wrong, convince ourselves that we are wrong
 F            G          C
Why can't we see, we are magnificent?
 F            G          C
Why can't we see, we are magnificent?
