Verse 1:
  G
I was six years old
G7
When my parents went away
C                        A7
I was stuck inside a broken life

I couldn't wish away
     G
She was beautiful
G7                      C
She had everything and more
                   A7                             
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door

Refrain:
C                 D9
Somebody listen please
C                           D9
It used to be so hard being me

Chorus:
               G
Living in the shadow
                  G7
Of someone else's dream
                  C                                         F
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
              G
Living in a nightmare
                G7
A never-ending sleep
                       C
But now that I am wide awake
                       F
My chains are finally free
                     G
Don't feel sorry for me

G
All the days collided
G7
One less perfect than the next
C                   A7                                      G
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best
                    G7                C
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
                             A7             
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity

Refrain:
C                D9
So if you're listening
C                                D9
There's so much more to me you haven't seen

Chorus:
               G
Living in the shadow
                  G7
Of someone else's dream
                  C                                         F
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
              G
Living in a nightmare
                G7
A never-ending sleep
                       C
But now that I am wide awake
                       F
My chains are finally free
                     
Don't feel sorry for me

Bridge:
Am                                  F
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother

Everything's cool now
Am                                  F
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother

Everything's cool now
D9             F
Oh, my life is good
                            D9
I've got more than anyone should
                  F
Oh, my life is good
                       G    G
And the past is in the past

Chorus:
               G
I was living in the shadow
                   G7
Of someone else's dream
                  C                                         F
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
                   G
I'm living in a new day
                  G7
I'm living it for me
                        C
And now that I am wide awake
                   F
Then I can finally be
                   G
Don't feel sorry for me
