Permission

Intro: Dm   F   C   G

Dm                 F
I've been an ace girl
                 Dm                
Offering much, grumbling low
 F

            Dm                  
And I gave all,     all that was 
        F
asked of me
                       Dm          
When order was slow and vision was 
         F
unrelenting

Dm                              Bb
I       never stopped long enough
          F                      C
To swim against the tides of old
       Dm                          
And I     was single-minded too 
  Bb
much
       F                    C
To look toward this new true north
So now

F                             C
    Permission to be
                  Dm
Permission to slow
             Bb                    
And do the only things that matter 
    F
to me
             C
The freedom to flow
                  Dm
To where genuine flows
             Bb
And do the only things that matter 
to me

        Dm           F
And sure, I've had my fun
            Dm
Played with my roles
            F
With time for a break hard-won
       Dm               F
But then after a while
               Dm
So much done by rote
                 F
No longer by inspiration

Dm                     Bb
I've   never stopped long enough

      F                         C
To see whose was this blind ambition
       Dm                  F
And I      was not sanctioned to 
stop
            Bb                
And realize whose was this old 
       C
mission
So now

F                             C
    Permission to be
                  Dm
Permission to slow
             Bb                    
And do the only things that matter 
    F
to me
             C
The freedom to flow
                  Dm
To where genuine flows
             Bb
And do the only things that matter 
to me

                   C            Dm
With this space by the dropping of
              Bb
 weights
             C
This license to obey
         Dm                 C
With this time really wait
So now

F                             C
    Permission to be
                  Dm
Permission to slow
             Bb                    
And do the only things that matter 
    F
to me
             C
The freedom to flow
                  Dm
To where genuine flows
             Bb                    
And do the only things that matter 
          F
to me

C       Bb      Dm              
             The simple things 
           F
that matter to me
C       Bb      Dm              
             The simple things 
           F
that matter to me?
