This is a call to the colorblind
This is an IOU
I'm stranded behind the horizon line
Tied up in something new
P CH (all chords octave up)
Yes I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded by
/9
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
/9
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 tripping in
Never to quite return
P CH
Yes I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded by
/9
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
/9
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
Cause Im bigger than my body now
/ / / A^9 / A^9 /
/ / / A^9 / A^9 //
Maybe ill tangle in the power lines
And it might be over in a seconds time
/9
But Ill gladly go down in a flame if a flames what it
takes to remember my name
To remember my name
P CH
Yes I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded by
/9
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
/9
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
Bigger than my body
/9 Bsus7
Bigger than my body now
