Intro: F - C - Dm - Am (2x)
       Am - Dm

Am
Some days, feels my soul has left my body
Dm
Feel I'm floating high above me
Am                             Dm
Like I'm looking down upon me

Am
Start sinking, everytime I get to thinking
Dm
It's easier to keep on moving
Am                                Dm
Never stop to let the truth in

Dm           G               C            F
Sometimes I feel like it's all been done
Dm           G               C            F
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one
Dm            G                    C                      F
Sometimes I wanna change everything I've ever done
Dm            G               C
Too tired to fight and yet too scared to run

F                        C
And if I stop for a minute
       Dm           Am         F       C          Dm  Am
I think about things I really don't wanna know
F                        C
And I'm the first to admit it
       Dm           Am         F       C       Dm   Am
Without you I'm a liner stranded in an ice floe

Am Dm

Am
I feel like a thief who has no face
Dm
Made imortal by the grade
Am                              Dm
Of the drugs you took that day

Am
Sinking in the pain he's been inflicting
Dm
Yet he's feeling like the victim
Am                                               Dm
Just a horoscope's to blame

Dm                G                 C              F
Sometimes I feel like a little lost child
Dm                  G                    C                F
Sometimes I feel like the chosen one
Dm                                 G                                      C          F
Sometimes I wanna shout out 'til everything goes quiet
Dm                   G                             C           F
Sometimes I wonder why I was ever born

F                        C
And if I stop for a minute
       Dm           Am         F       C          Dm  Am
I think about things I really don't wanna know
F                        C
And I'm the first to admit it
       Dm           Am                            F                C
Without you I'm child and so wherever you go
Dm     Am
I will follow

[K'naan]

( F  C  Dm  Am )

And baby you are just beautiful from crown to your cuticles
You held down my two sons, you never frown when duty calls
You know me, I gave you more than you can handle
But you still keep a handle on it, even when I take something beautiful and vandal on it
No more females? Well how come my emails got notes on a scandal
It's like Eve with the apple,
A priest in the chapel
Overcome by the devil's tackle
I'm still shackling the bad til I know
I'm such a hassle every time I let my thoughts go
I get baffled so I hardly pause
I just crossed seas with these gnarly broads
Cos it hurts me just to see what I finally lost
So I guess I'm just a fiend
Consumed by the scene
The stage and the screens
Where it's just me and Keane

F                        C
And if I stop for a minute
       Dm           Am         F       C          Dm  Am
I think about things I really don't wanna know
F                        C
And I'm the first to admit it
       Dm           Am                            F                C
Without you I'm child and so wherever you go
Dm     Am
I will follow
