D E G G x2 Bm7 G x2
Bm7 G
close my eyes and ask myself a question
Bm7 G
why is it i do what i do
Bm7 G
am i looking for some happy definition
Bm7 G
of life and love in the corners of the truth
Bm7 G
or am i just some curious bystander
Bm7 G
looking at the world through a child's eyes
Bm7 G
sunlight always shining on my shoulders
Bm7 G
while the storm rages on deep inside, deep inside
D C
and it seems so hard to keep it all together
F# G
when the walls are falling down on every side
D C
yeah, but i'll be damned if i give up on it easy
F# G
i've worked too hard to get the barricades this high
Bm7 G
now this world's a stage we're meant to play on
Bm7 G
direction from inside on what to do
Bm7 G
i know i should have all of the answers
Bm7 G
deep inside i haven't got a clue, got a clue

somewhere low i know that i've been lying
