                    A
  I don't wanna be left behind
E     F#m          A
  Distance was a friend of mine
D     F#m               A
  Catching breath in a web of lies
   E    F#m   D
  I've spent most of my life
                       A
  Riding waves playing acrobat
E    F#m           A
  Shadowboxing the other half
D      F#m      A
  Learning how to react
    E   F#m   D
  I've spent most of my time

                A                 E
  Catching my breath, letting it go 
              F#m                        D
  Turning my cheek for the sake of the show
                 A              E
  Now that you know this is my life 
              F#m                        D
  I won't be told what's supposed to be right

 
   A
  Catch my breath 
E
  No one can hold me back
F#m                         D
  I ain't got time for that
   A
  Catch my breath
E
  Won't let them get me down
F#m                      D
  It's all so simple now

 
                    A
  Addicted to the love I found
E        F#m          A
  Heavy heart now a weightless cloud
D        F#m           A
  Making time for the ones that count
   E    F#m       D
  I'll spend the rest of my time
                          A
  Laughing hard with the windows down
E    F#m                 A
  Leaving footprints all over town
D    F#m               A
  Keeping faith kinda comes around
  E        F#m       D
  I won't spent the rest of my life

                A                 E
  Catching my breath, letting it go 
              F#m                        D
  Turning my cheek for the sake of the show
                 A              E
