Intro
Am F C x2
[Verse]
Am
On the edge of blowin' away
C
I'll stay
This balance game
Am
Is what I'm happy to play
C
Must be
Dm
This feeling of free
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Don't you know I'm tired
Of these paint by numbers
C
Talk about my comfort
Am
That's a risk I'm willing to ride
Fmaj7
To try to be happy
Dm
Sounds like a plan to me
Don't it sound like
[Chorus]
C Am
This is the fire that keeps me out all night
C
And still at church on time
Am
And feeling light as anything
C Am
This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright
Fmaj7
That keeps my pocket tight
Dm
And somehow light as anything
C Am
I'd say that life is better on my side
C
So come and waste some time
Am F7
We could be light as anything
E
Look down
F7
Do you see the ground?
Dm
Fade out
Am Fmaj7 C
[Verse]
Am
Dad says don't be out late
C
Stay safe
Am
I hope that we agree on what that all means
C
'Cause I've been
Itching for a little escape
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Don't you know I'm tired
Of these paint by numbers
C
Journeys to discover
Happy's just a spot in my mind
Am Fmaj7
Breath a sigh of relief
Dm
Sounds like a plan to me
Don't it sound like
[Chorus]
C Am
This is the fire that keeps me out all night
C
And still at church on time
Am
And feeling light as anything
C Am
This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright
Fmaj7
That keeps my pocket tight
Dm
And somehow light as anything
C Am
I'd say that life is better on my side
C
So come and waste some time
Am F7
We could be light as anything
E
Look down
F7
Do you see the ground?
Dm
Fade out
[Bridge]
E
It should not be up to me
Am
To say what gives you release
F C
It should be a world that you decided
E
I keep my head in the clouds
Am F
But keep my feet on the ground
That's for me
C F7
F world that I decided
Em
So look down
F7
Wave goodbye to the ground
Dm
And watch what happens now
[Chorus]
C Am
This is the fire that keeps me out all night
C
And still at church on time
Am
And feeling light as anything
C Am
This is the sun that keeps my mornings bright
Fmaj7
That keeps my pocket tight
Dm
And somehow light as anything
C Am
I'd say that life is better on my side
C
So come and waste some time
Am F7
We could be light as anything
Em
Won't you look down
F7
Wave goodbye to the ground
Dm
And watch what happens now
Am Fmaj7 C x2
