Shadow chords by Ashlee Simpson

Chords with lyrics

G+G
I was six years old
D MajorD
When my parents went away
E minorEm            D MajorD
I was stuck inside a broken life

I couldn't wish away
   G+G
She was beautiful
D MajorD           E minorEm
She had everything and more
          D MajorD             C majorC
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door
C majorC         D MajorD
Somebody listen please
C majorC              D MajorD
It used to be so hard being me
D MajorD       G+G
Living in the shadow
         E minorEm
Of someone else's dream
         D MajorD                 C majorC
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
       G+G
Living in a nightmare
        E minorEm
A augmentedA never-ending sleep
          D MajorD
But now that I am wide awake
          C majorC
My chains are finally free
          G+G
Don't feel sorry for me

G+G
All the days collided
E minorEm
One less perfect than the next
D MajorD                              G+G
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best
          D MajorD         E minorEm
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
               D MajorD       C majorC
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity
C majorC        D MajorD
So if you're listening
C majorC                D MajorD
There's so much more to me you haven't seen
         G+G
Living in the shadow
          D MajorD
Of someone else's dream
            E minorEm               D MajorD
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
G+G
Living in a nightmare
D MajorD        E minorEm
A augmentedA never-ending sleep
            D MajorD
But now that I am wide awake
   C majorC
Then I can finally be me
        G+G
Don't feel sorry-

C majorC
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
G+G
Everything's cool now
C majorC
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
G+G
Everything's cool now
D MajorD
Oh, my life is good
C majorC
I've got more than anyone should
D MajorD
Oh, my life is good
G+G
And the past in the past
G+G
I was living in the shadow
          D MajorD
Of someone else's dream
         E minorEm                   D MajorD
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
          G+G
I'm living in a new day
         D MajorD
I'm living it for me
            E minorEm
And now that I am wide awake
          D MajorD
Then I can finally be
          G+G
Don't feel sorry for me
D MajorD                   C majorC
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me
G+G                    D MajorD
Living in, living in, living in the shadow
C majorC                   G+G
Living in, living in, living in a new day
