       E
In the corner of a box marked lost and found
Aadd9               E*
I find myself again
E
Lining the bottom of a wishing well
           Aadd9                       E*
with other dreams that might have been
E
Flattened by the pressure of what's coming down
    Aadd9                        E*
I'm relying on faith second hand


[Chorus]:
Aadd9           Abm
I used to be an average man
     Aadd9                     E*
with bigger than average plans
Aadd9         Abm            F#m
Somehow I got lost along the way
            Badd9
and now I'm here
                    E                              Aadd9
Don't you know that you could be the one to set me free
                   E                                 Aadd9  A* Aadd9 A
I've waited all my life to be someone somebody could see
        Abm                  F#m         Abm
You can find me still in the corner of a box
                A5                       Badd9
marked lost and found at the bottom of a wishing well

E [Intro Riff]


E
Burdened by the weight of a wrecking ball
    Aadd9                          E*
I'm defining my own sense of worth
  E
I want to bathe my soul in the light
     Aadd9                    E*
as religion finds me immersed
E
Destitution knows me by name
          Aadd9                           E*
While the trick is to sit where you stand

[Chorus]


I'm caught shuddering by myself
each wish in the shape of a coin
Legal tender for wishes thrown
as the water reflects the unknown
The tide rips through the surface of time
But I can't think of when it began

[Chorus]
