Come at you from both sides of your mind 
Thick and thin these 
Am                  G                F 
Walls you’ll always stand behind 
Are sick and tired 
Am                  G                F 
Oh I beg for the world to change 
But it don’t

And you 
G                                          F 
Showed me hope amidst the harlequins in spring 
Am 
And you 
G                                          F 
Told me life was learning how to be your friend 

Am                  G                F
