One day its here and then its gone
                             A
 How are you still holding on
                             E
 How are you still holding on

E5
                                    B
 You've felt this way for far too long
                             A
 Waiting for a change to come
                               E
 You know you're not the only one

 Through the eyes of someone else

 Through the eyes of someone else

                                B
Too shy to say that you need help
                     A
 You and everybody else
                     E
 You and everybody else

E5
  A*              E

 On your own

C#m                       A
 As your heart gets bigger
                         E
 And you try to figure out
                   B
 What's it all about

C#m                       A
 And your skin gets thicker
                        E
 As you try to figure out
                   B
 What's it all about
