Am-E

(Verse - Arpeggios) 
AmTake me backwards
             ETurn me around
               AmCannot find my balance on the ground
FThis world is to heavy
      G                     AmFor a feather falling quickly

Am                    EAnd I wrote you a story
                           AmBut I’m afraid of how it ends
           F                  GAnd all my friends are doing well
                       AmAnd I’m still on the mend

(Chorus - Strummed) 
C                        GI’m going to lay back down 
                            FHope the wind takes me around
                  EI gotta find some courage in this town
C                        GCause nobody’s going to save
                        FSomebody who won’t change
           ETry to be brave


(Verse - Arpeggios) 
Am                   EAnd nothing’s coming easy
                                AmAnd all at once I feel a little queasy
               FOh but if your love’s my remedy
           G                      AmWon’t you please come and be with me

Am                         EIt’s not like there’s much better
                     AmNobody’s grass is as green as mine
                     FI can’t say that I’m satisfied
     G                     Am3000 miles from your kiss goodbye
 
(Chorus - Strummed) 
C                      GI’m going to lay back down
                       FHope the wind takes me around
                  EI gotta find some courage in this town

(Bridge - Strummed)
Am              CAnd everybody’s afraid
                        FCause chances come from change
Am              CAnd everybody’s afraid
                        FCause chances come from breaking
                 E        AmChances are your breaking open
 
(Chorus - Strummed)
C                     GI’m going to lay back down
                       FHope the wind takes me around
                  EI gotta find some courage in this town
C                       GCause nobody’s going to save
                   FSomebody who won’t change
                EIt’s time to be brave

(outro - Arpeggios) 
Am-E
