Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
This  is a call  to the colorblind
This  is an IOU
 I'm stranded  behind  the horizon  line
Tied  up in something new
Yes  I'm grounded
Got  my wings clipped
I'm  surrounded by
All  this pavement
Guess  I'll circle
While  I'm waiting
For  my fears to dry
 Someday I'll fly  someday  I'll soar
 Someday I'll be  so damn  much more
 Cause I'm bigger  than my body  gives me credit  for
 Why is it not the time?
 What is there more to learn?
 Shed this skin i've been triping in
 Never to quite return
 BRIDGE CHORDS 1
 Yes i'm grounded
 Got my wings clipped cause i'm surrounded by alluse this pavement
 Guess i'll circle while i'm waiting for my fears to dry
 Someday i'll fly someday i'll sore
 Someday i'll be so damn much more
 Cause im bigger than my body gives me credit for
 Cause im bigger  than my body  now
 Vocal break, Chorus chords played once more. Also the main guitar riff (I'll
 give you that once I've figured it out.)
 Key change to C
 Bridge chords 2
Maybe  ill tangle in  the power lines
 And it might be over in  a seconds  time
 But ill gladly  go down  in a flame  if a flames  what it takes to remember my name
 To remember  my name
 Bridge Chords 1
 Yes im grounded
 Got my wings clipped
 Cause im surrounded by all this pavement
 Guess i'll circle while im waiting for my fuse to dry
 Wait for my fears to dry
 Someday ill fly
 Someday  ill soar
 Someday i'll be  do damn  much more
Cause  im bigger than my body
Bigger  than my body
Im  bigger than my body now
