CHORDS

                  E5
I'm gonna start again
     A5              B5
This world I painted black
                E5
Just needs some colour
A5                B5            C5
I'm gonna live my life like the other
B5                   E5
Person I should have been

I ain't tapping out, no no no no
        A5               B5
To this dark and twisted dream
               E5
That's kept me living
  A5
I pray to my soul
   B5             C5
To keep it's fire burning
            A5
And when it does
B5                 E5
I'm gonna let it shine

              A5                E5
I'll make the best of this life I've got left
B5              E5   
Got no time for no regrets
      A5                G5
Gonna show you just what I can be
    B5                   E5
The person I should have been

And it might take time, take time
         A5             B5              E5
Coz this life has taken it right out of me
A5                B5             G5
I wanna change my perspective of reality
A5         G5      C5
Be a much better version of me
    B5                   E5
The person I should have been
           A5                E5
I make the best of this life I've got left
B5               E5
Put my sincerity to the test
     A5           G5
Wake up my senses finally
    B5              E5
The water washes me clean

    A5                       E5
What shouldn't have been has all been done
  B5
If I don't get a grip
         E5
Then the world has won
A5                       G5
Making me think that I'll never be
   B5                    E5
The person I should have been
           A5
Who am I now?
  B5                E5
A lonely man that's fallen down
           A5
No I can't change
    B5                 E5
The past that time has all burned out
      C5       C#5            A5
But I know somewhere inside of me
       A5     B5            E5
Is the person I could have been
         A5                E5
Make the best of this life I've got left
B5              E5 
Got no time for no regrets
      A5                 G5
Gonna show you just what I can be
    B5                   E5
The person I should have been

    A5                       E5
What shouldn't have been has all been done
  B5
If I don't get a grip
         E5
Then the world has won
A5                       G5
Making me think that I'll never be
   B5                    E5
The person I should have been
          A5     E5    B5                  E5 
I said the person,   person I should have been
    A5     E5    B5                  E5 
The person,      person I should have been
    A5     E5    B5              E5 
The person         I should have been
          A5     E5    B5                  E5   
I said the person,     person I should have been
