Some of the chord positions are off (sorry) and it isn't perfect, but it's a super-
simplified version for a complete novice. :)
CAPO: 2
[Gsus]In the back of my mind, well I fought my god
[Cadd9]'cause all of the hell that's in my time.
[Gsus]But I can still see the birds and where they went this year.
[D]Our winter made things hazy and I know
[Gsus]that I was losing site of my hometown,[Cadd9]
and in my blacking out I think I let you down.[Gsus]
Don't let them try [D]to save me 'cause I'm already[Cadd9] crazy.
[G]And there is something in your face[D]
that pulls me fa[Cadd9]r enough away.
I guess that I a[Gsus]lways knew[D]
that I'd[Cadd9] find you when I thought
[Gsus]that I'd be letting out [D]my darkest now,[Cadd9]
and in my climbing out I think I let you live.[Gsus]
I wish you'd try[Cadd9] to save me,
your sil[D]ence makes me crazy.
It takes[Cadd9] a lot to say that something is [Gsus]fate,
I kind of know where you're headed.[D]
Am I too[Cadd9] up front, or am I just [Gsus]on time? And where was your head at?[D]
CHORUS
[G]And there is something in your face[D]
that pulls me fa[Cadd9]r enough away.
I guess that I a[Gsus]lways knew[D]
that I'd[Cadd9] find you when I thought
I reached my poi[G]nt, I let them down.[D]
I slept in the w[Cadd9]orst part of this town.
You are my song,[Gsus] and y[D]ou are where I want to be.[Cadd9]
[Gsus]I want to take those steps I never have.
[Cadd9]I need to stand up straight so I can feel your breath.
[G]I really think for once that I can change;[D]
it's really not that bad.
[Gsus]I'm learning now that I was wrong in eve[Cadd9]rything
and there's a re[Gsus]ason why I think that I can grow;[D]
it's really not that bad.
[Gsus]It's in the way you had,
it's in the way you had [Cadd9]me all wrapped up like
[Gsus]I'm a part of something finally,
and I'm [D]never looking back.
CHORUS
I reached my poi[G]nt, I let them down.[D]
I slept in the w[Cadd9]orst part of this town.
You are my song,[Gsus] and y[D]ou are where I want to be.[Cadd9]
