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
C Asus4
Somebody listen please
C Asus4
It used to be so hard being me
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 C
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity
Asus4
So if you're listening
C Asus4
There's so much more to me you haven't seen
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
Am F
Mother sister father sister mother
Everything's cool now
Am F
Mother sister father sister mother
Everything's cool now
Asus4 F
Oh my life is good
Asus4
I've got more than anyone should
F
Oh my life is good
G
And the past is in the past
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
G7 C
Don't feel sorry don't feel sorry for me
G G7
Living in living in living in the shadow
C A7 G [arpeggio]
Living in living in living in a new day
