Intro: C#m-A-E-Ab 2x


C#m                A
Left everything behind me,
E                                      Ab 
Searching for the strength I thought I had inside me, 
C#m                 A
Left you behind so lonely, 
E                                  Ab
Praying for the day that you would somehow find me


      C#m
I was young 

(You were wrong) 
      A
But I tried 
                 E                                  Ab
(I was trying to give that I had lost through all I see) 


Chorus:
        E
Hear me now
          Ab                C#m
All I can say is I am not afraid, 
       A                       (B)      E
Of the world that I am trying to put you in, 
             Ab
I fight everyday, 
            C#m
But I am to blame, 
         A
I am not innocent, 
        (B)   C#m
But I am not afraid

I lost all the things inside me, 
(Inside me) 
E                                    Ab
Still have found myself with all the will to 
             C#m
Free me from you, 
I'm asleep, 
    A
I'm happy, 
(I'm happy) 
E                               Ab
Want to know so much for you to someday see me


        C#m
Tell me how, 
(I want to) 
        A
Sing it loud, 
               E                             Ab    Ab7  Ab
(I need you to be the one who catches all my dreams)

Of the world that I am trying to put you in, 
             Ab
I fight everyday, 
            C#m
But I am to blame, 
         A
I am not innocent, 
        (B)   E        Ab
But I am not afraid anymore, 
          A
I am not afraid, 
   Am
