Intro: Am7 Am2 G Am7
verse 1
Am7 D2 G C G
Outside my room looking in, you’d probably find me all over the place
Am7 D2 G C G
Pictures of me back in school, a slight crooked kid like the smile on my face
Am7 D2 G D2
My first guitar by the bed, circles of dust clinging to wood
Am7 D2 G C G
It drew the first song from my head, singing ‘If I was gone, I’d be gone for good’
Pre-Chorus
Em7 C G D2
I’m afraid to grow up, but somewhere inside is the will of a man
Em7 C G D2
And all I’ve ever wanted, was something to give, and love if I can
Chorus
(no chord) Am7 C
You make me want to try
G D
You make me want to fight
Am7 C
You make me want to live
G D
You make me want to give
verse 2
Am7 D2 G C G
And inside my room looking out, the colours of night all faded and bruised
Am7 D2 G C G
But up from the shadows of doubt, you lift your heart and you stepped into view
Am7 D2 G D2
And under the streetlight we kissed, never more tried – never more true
Am7 D2 G C G
It drew a new song from my lips, singing ‘If I could fall, I’m falling for you
?
Pre-Chorus
Em7 C G D2
I’m afraid to grow up, cos somewhere inside, I don’t think I can
Em7 C G D2
And all I’ve ever wanted, is someone to love and to live like a man
Chorus

You make me want to try
G D

You make me want to live

You make me want to give
