Verse :
Am           F               
    I met a prophet dark as the 
    G
night
           C     G    Am
She could see into my soul
                 F              
Said she'd been watching and had 
        G
some advice
          C       G        Am
She said shadows make you whole

                F               
A life without pain is a wolf in 
           G
sheep's clothes
              C     G      Am     
Cause if you listen to the lessons
 Em      F
 that it holds
                 G
You'll find the gold


Chorus :
 C          G   Am            Em
Child it's time to break the shell
 F            Em            F    
Life's gonna hurt but it's meant 
       G
to be felt
        C             G       Am 
You cannot touch the sky from 
        Em
inside yourself
F          Em   F         G    
You cannot fly until you break 
     C
the shell


Verse :
Am          F                   G
   I can remember when I was a child
         C           G         Am
How the grown folks seemed so crazy
                 F                 
Why are they so angry, why are they
     G
 so loud ?

            C              G      
And when I grow up that's never 
         Am
ever gonna be me

              F               G
That was the moment that I decide
              C       G         
That I would build a wall just 
Am     Em       F
shy of six feet tall
               G
Too strong to fall


Chorus :
 C          G   Am            Em
Child it's time to break the shell
 F            Em            F    
Life's gonna hurt but it's meant 
       G
to be felt
        C             G        Am
You cannot touch the sky from 
        Em
inside yourself
F          Em   F         G    
You cannot fly until you break 
     C
the shell


Bridge :
F                        C
   Courage is not being hard
              Em
It's time to peel back all of the 
layers
    Am                             
You put between who you're meant to
 D
 be
            F
And who you are
                  Fm
And go be who you are


Verse :
Am               F               
   So much disappointment to 
          G
finally understand
              C        G     
That there is no such thing as 
  Am
perfect

                 F                 
Were all simply doing the best that
     G
 we can
               C         G      
And we have a choice to live or 
Am    Em   F
truly be alive
 G            C
This is your life

Chorus :
(C)         G   Am            Em
Child it's time to break the shell
 F            Em            F    
Life's gonna hurt but it's meant 
       G
to be felt
        C             G        Am
You cannot touch the sky from 
        Em
inside yourself
F          Em   F         G    
You cannot fly until you break 
     C
the shell

(C)         G   Am            Em
Child it's time to break the shell
 F            Em            F    
Life's gonna hurt but it's meant 
       G
to be felt
        C             G        Am
You cannot touch the sky from 
        Em
inside yourself
   F           Em  F        G   
A bird cannot fly until it 
       C
breaks the shell


Ending :
Am       G           C        G
Do with these words what you will
      F       G     D
It's time for us to be for real
 F          G           D        F
You'll be stuck on the ground until
Am           G         C
You finally break the shell
