Beneath My Skin

I'm so t[D]ired of this here t[A]own
Don't know w[D]hy I'm hanging aro[F#m]und
I wanna tr[Bm]avel, see the w[D]orld
And find a [Bm]boy that wants to find that kind [E]of girl

And we would sail uncharted waters
And we would sleep under the stars
And we would bask in our good fortune
We'd have no means but we would have each other's arms

So what do you [D]say? Can I count yo[A]u in?
My bags are pac[D]ked, you just say [F#m]when
And we can go w[D]here no one's ever b[A]een
And you can s[E]tay, here beneath my s[F#m]kin

Now we all fight to keep our freedom
And we get scared each time we lose
But I admit that in my hard won independence
You know I wish that there were fights I didn't choose

So here I stand without my armor
And I am waving my white flag
And I am asking you for mercy
So if I fight I hope that you will understand

Yeah you'll be l[D]oved like no one's ever[A] been
Yeah you can s[E]tay here beneath my s[F#m]kin
