G D/F#
It's as if you could find me anywhere
Em D/F# G
That I could go, to try to hide my thoughts from you
D/F#
But just like some runaway I'm leaving here
Em D/F#
With half a mind that hopes, of getting caught
G D/F#
So we can just drive home in the dark where we'll let our (our) feelings fly
Em D/F#
(They'll) They'll cut like shame to break me down again
G D/F# Em D/F#
Until there's nothing left but for me to tell you I'm sorry
G
But I dont wanna go home now
D/F#
Stuck here in the middle alone now
Em
Everybody's singing their song now
D/F#
But I'm still reeling
G
I'm not trying to run away from
D/F#
This beautiful life I've been given
Em
I'm not looking for freedom
D/F#
Maybe just a little meaning
G D/F# Em D/F#
Here in the Middle
G D/F#
It's as if there's a world uncovered by
Em D/F# G
The break of day all these miles away but for a better view
D/F#
Of what's left in the aftermath of all these years
Em D/F#
It's just so hard to know who I am in you
G
But I dont wanna go home now
D/F#
Stuck here in the middle alone now
Em
Everybody's singing their song now
D/F#
But I'm still reeling
G
I'm not trying to run away from
D/F#
This beautiful life I've been given
Em
I'm not looking for freedom
D/F#
Maybe just a little meaning
Here in the Middle
Bridge
C D/F#
Alright, everybody says I'll be alright
Em
Everybody says it's a good fight
D/F#
I'm not seeing it now
C
All I know is I swear this
D/F#
It feels a little more like a secret
Em
And I don't know if I should just keep it
C
To myself, but my Love, my Love
G
But I dont wanna go home now
D/F#
Stuck here in the middle alone now
Em
Everybody's singing their song now
D/F#
But I'm still reeling
G
I'm not trying to run away from
D/F#
This beautiful life I've been given
Em
I'm not looking for freedom
D/F#
Maybe just a little meaning
G D/F#
Here in the Middle
Em D/F#
Here in the Middle
G D/F#
Here in the Middle
Em D/F#
Here in the Middle (Here)
G D/F# Em D/F#
Here in the Middle
