Thanks to PANFI (my friend Federico from Cadidavid-VERONA) for the CDs, and
for his passion for this group.

This is a great acoustic song, with a lot of guitars involved. I simplified
two guitars into one for the melody (except for the solo) and I didn't mind
the guitar that plays only harmonics (there are many all through the song).
Enjoy (even if it isn't easy)!!

Here I sit halfway to somewhere
thinking 'bout what's in front of me and what I left behind
on my own, supposed to be so easy
is this what I've been after
or have I lost my mind
maybe this is my big chance coming to take me away

[Chorus] If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know
if the story's written on my face, does it show
Am I strong enough to walk on water
Smart enough to come in out of rain
or am I fool going where the wind blows

[Asus2] Here I am, walking[C#m] naked through the world
[Asus2] taking up space, soci[E]ety's child
make[Bsus4] room for me, make room for me, make room for me
