Intro: C  G  F  C  Am 

                   F    Am                F       Am 
You live in your prison, the one that you choose 
                 F                   G     Am 
You'd do anything to have nothing to lose  
                    F     Am                 F     Am 
You got scared of escaping just a little too soon 
                 F                     G 
You give up your shovel and dig with a spoon  


 
             C 
You gave it away 
         G 
Gave it away 
C                   G                         F   
Oh love, now you're out in the cold with your rock-a-bye body 
     C 
Your butterfly soul 
       G 
Oh no, don't you grow old 
            F                   Am 
You're just finding your way 


                   F   Am                   F    Am 
With the current behind you, a clear summer sky 
                  F                        G     Am 
You call yourself stranded, a boat by your side  
                    F      Am                   F      Am 
And your fistful of wishes, and your handful of hopes 
                F                      G 
You stash them away in the pit of your throat 



               C 
You save them away 
           G7 
Save them away 
C               G                       F   
Oh no, but it's taking its toll on your rock-a-bye body 
     C 
Your lullaby soul 
       G 
Oh no, don't you grow old 
            F   
You're just finding your way 
          G 
Finding  


INTERLUDE: G  C  G    F  C  G  Am 


                   F           Am                        F     Am 
I got a dream for you sometime, that you'll admit to the tide 
                       F            G 
You'll push out in the ocean and go for a ride 



                C 
You're sailing away 
         G 
Sailing away 
C      G                        F   
Oh no, don't you let go of your rock-a-bye body 
     C 
Your butterfly soul 
       G 
Oh no, don't you grow old 
         F   
You just find your way, find your way 
                      C  G  Am  F 
Find your way back to me______ 
        C  G  Am  F  C 
Back to me______
