verse 1 

C               F               C 
I was born come on the break of spring 
C            F            C 
Mama told me i got joy to bring 
    Am              F            C 
But i got something buried in my soul 
G            F                 C 
Nothing ever seemed to make me whole 

C           F                    C 
I got on my knees and learned to pray 
C                  F               Am 
God, if you're the one then i will stay 
F                            C 
But i was given wings to fly away 
G                 F           C 
I keep my word as long as i'm okay 


[Refrão]

                   Am                      F 
So tell me what it means my fingers on the strings 
                  C                                      G 
I'm praying i got something worth the breath it takes to say 
                 Am                         F 
And i don't understand why i should get the chance 
                      C                               G 
While in my dreams my teeth are crumbling out into my hands 
                              C 
When i can't earn this plan 


verse 2 

  C                F             C 
I wish that i were better at goodbyes 
  C                  F               C 
I don't connect with what would make you cry 
  Am                      F               C 
I guess there's something different in my head 
    G              F             C 
But i'll pretend i understand instead 

     C              F               C 
You think i found a place where i belong 
    C                F               Am 
But nothing keeps me rooted here for long 
    F                           C 
I'd rather travel to a stranger place 
     G             F          C 
Then recognized as a familiar face 


[Refrão]

                   Am                      F 
So tell me what it means my fingers on the strings 
                  C                                      G 
I'm praying i got something worth the breath it takes to say 
                 Am                         F 
And i don't understand why i should get the chance 
                      C                               G 
While in my dreams my teeth are crumbling out into my hands 
                       Am      
When i can't earn this plan 


Bridge 

       F 
I i i i 
                       C 
When i can't earn this plan 
        G 
I i i-i 
                  Am 
And i don't understand 
        F 
I i i-i 
                      C 
Why i should get this chance 
       G Am 
I i i-i  


verse 3 

C             F              C 
I'm afraid of running out of days 
F            F              Am 
Tell me everything will be okay 
F                         C 
I think i am better on my own 
    G          F            C 
But mama i'm afraid to die alone
