  			Primeira Parte 

                  C/G 
I'd rather walk alone 
                 Am7 
Than stand in a row 
                         F9/C 
I'd line up everything I own 
                                    C/G 
Decide what should stay and should go 

Segunda Parte 

                         C/G 
This life was mine to choose 
                                  Am7 
Yearning to wander through and through 
                                  F9/C 
At times I've been battered and bruised 
                                C/G 
But I'm still breathing in my youth 

Refrão 

           Dm         G         Am                Em 
Can't you see I'm sorry that I wasn't better at being who you wanted me to be 
          F7M/C               G                      C/G 
I've been living in lightning for what seems like eternity 

Terceira Parte 

                         C/G 
You wear these brooding ghosts 
                             Am7 
Tighter and tighter round your throat 
                                 F9/C 
They're weighing you down like a stone 
                       C/G 
They might never let you go 

Refrão 

                   Dm            G    
Can't you see I'm sorry that I wasn't  
           Am                        Em 
Better at being who you wanted me to be 
         F7M/C               

I've been living in lightning  
  G                     Dm       
For what seems like eternity     
G    Am      Em 
  ooooohhhh 
         F7M/C              
I've been living in lightning  
   G                      C/G 
For what seems like eternity
