[Intro]
C Am C Fmaj7 C
[Verse 1]
Oh, mother
Am
I was born in your eyes
C
I was walking
Fmaj7
The day I came to life
Am
And I've come beside myself to know
Fmaj7 C
I'm just a person with highs and lows
[Verse 2]
Oh, father
Am C
I was raised in your hands
I was fighting
Fmaj7
Before I could understand
Am
And I've got a lot of things to learn
Fmaj7
And things I don't think that I deserve
[Interlude]
C
Come lay your head
And come rest your tired eyes
Fmaj7
Fall back instead
Feel your breath internalize
C
And come lay your head
And come rest your tired eyes
G
And fall back instead
Fall back instead
[Bridge]
Fmaj7
When I try to fall asleep
Am
I'm lifted from my bed sheets
C
Where the ground is falling down
G
And the night is far too loud
Am
I'm giving up
Fmaj7
I'm giving in
[Instrumental]
C, G, Am, Fmaj7
[Verse 3]
C
Everything is rising
G
Come and rest your tired eyes
Am
Your youth's fading
Everyone is leaving
Fmaj7
And I cannot complain
[Outro]
