CAPO 2nd FRET
(Original Key: A)
Verse 1:
[G] I had to prove that I could,
Make it alone now,
But [D7sus4]that's not me.[D7]
[G] I wanted to show,
How independent I'd grown now,
But [D7sus4]that's not me.[D7]
Bridge 1:
I could [Am]try to be big,
In the [D7]eyes of the world.
What [Am]matters to me,
Is what [D7]I could be,
To just one [Bm7]girl.[Emaj7][F#m7/E]
Chorus 1:
I'm a [Emaj7]little bit scared,
'Cos I [F#m7/E]haven't been home,
In a [Emaj7]long time.[F#m7/E]
You [A]needed my love,
And I [A7]know that I left,
At the [D]wrong time.[D7]
Verse 2:
My [G]folks when I wrote them,
Told 'em what I was up to said;
[D7sus4] That's not me.[D7]
I went through [G]all kinds of changes,
Took a look at myself and said;
[D7sus4] That's not me.[D7]
Bridge 2:
I [Am]miss my pad,
And the [D7]places I've known,
And [Am]every night,
As I [D7]lay there alone;
I would [Bm7]dream.[Emaj7][F#m7/E]
Chorus 2:
I [Emaj7]once had a dream,
So I [F#m7/E]packed up and split,
For the [Emaj7]city.[F#m7/E]
I [Fmaj7]soon found out,
That my [Gm]lonely life,
Wasn't so [Fmaj7]pretty.[Gm]
I'm [Bb]glad I went,
Now I'm [Bb7]that much more sure,
That we're [Eb]ready.[Eb7]
Coda:
I [Emaj7]once had a dream,
So I [F#m7/E]packed up and split,
For the [Emaj7]city.[F#m7/E]
I [Fmaj7]soon found out,
That my [Gm]lonely life,
Wasn't so [Fmaj7]pretty.[Gm]
