So Afraid

F                               
All the kids run around playing 
Bb                             
free and fun, while the dogs lap 
             A
around the can
F                           
Falling down, climbing trees, 
           Bb                 
swimming in the river, no life 
                   A
jacket on their backs
          F                        
Daughters sharpen their knives and 
     Bb                         
they hunt for food, others watch 
                A
their children grow
        F                      Bb 
Mothers going to work and they 
shake the hands of a corporate 
      A
tycoon's ghost

[Chorus]
        Bb      F   C
And I'm afraid (ahhhh)
       Bb      F    C
I'm so afraid (ahhhh)
          Bb    C
What if I lose?
         F            Am
Is what I think to myself
    F           Bb
I'm fine in my shell
    A
I'm afraid of it all, afraid of 
loving you

[Verse 2]
      F                      
I'm a gift and a curse to the 
 Bb                                
wilderness when the leaves only 
      A
turn to brown

    F                        Bb   
The birds fly high and they wink 
                                 A
at all of the grandmothers on the 
ground
 F                     Bb         
Rain pours down in the village 
                           A
dens, my cousins fetch for lunch
        F                     
While I sit in my room writing 
 Bb                                
letters to my church and things and
  A
 such

[Chorus]

And I'm afraid (ahhhh)
       Bb      F    C
I'm so afraid (ahhhh)
          Bb    C
What if I lose?
         F            Am
Is what I think to myself
    F           Bb
I'm fine in my shell
    A
I'm afraid of it all, afraid of 
loving you

[Refrain]
F            Bb
Cousins all in the creek
                      A
Ridin' high, ride with me
F                        Bb      
And the rain pours down, the 
            A
