C           G 
So here I am 
Dm                   Am 
Doing everything I can 
Dm                    Em 
Holding on to what I am 
F                       G 
Pretending I'm a superman 


C              G       Am           Em     
I'm trying to keep the ground on my feet 
F                      C                   G 
It seems the world is falling down around me 
C               G        Am            Em 
The nights are long, I'm singing the song 
F                      C                   G 
And trying to make the answers more than maybe 

F            G         Em          Am 
And I'm so confused about what to do 
F                 G              C 
Sometimes i wanna throw it all away 

C           G 
I'm trying to sleep 
Am                   Em 
I lost count of sheep 
F                      C        G 
My mind is racing faster every minute 
C               G 
what could I do more 
Am            Em 
Yeah I'm really not sure 
F                   C               G 
I know I'm running circles but I can't quit 

F            G         Em          Am 
And I'm so confused about what to do 
F                 G              C 
Sometimes i wanna throw it all away 

C                        Am   
Controlling everything in sight 
Am                        Em 
Feeling weak I don't feel right 
Em                   F 
Telling me I have to change. 
F              C 
Telling me to act my age 
C                 Am 
But if all that I can do 
Am                     G 
Is just sit and watch the time goodbye 
G                      F 
Then I'll have to say goodbye 
Life's too short to watch it by 
So watch it fly 

C         G 
So here I am 
Dm                   Am 
Growing older all the time 
Dm                    Em 
Looking older all the time 
F                      G 
Feeling younger in my mind 
C          G 
So here I am 
Dm                Am 
Doing everything I can 
Dm               Em 
Holdin on to what I am 
F                   G          ...C 
Pretending I'm a superman
