Well tonight the stars are screaming; I’ve long been learning how to let it go
C                         F                                      C
I got these old forgotten feelings; Looking back on how I got so low
          F                 C         Dm
Sometimes life plays like a series of exams
             F                   C                  Dm
And you need someone to wash the bad blood off your hands
            F            C                 Dm
Well you’ll always be my favorite latchkey kid
    F            C               F            C          F
I’m sorry that I hurt you like I did

There’s something wrong, something missing; Something I’ve seen inside my friends
    C                           F                                       C
And Lord, It’s hard to have the vision; Standing at the darkest of dead ends
          F               C              Dm
Won’t you tell me how the story goes and goes
         F                   C               Dm
When I’m too lost to tell my temples from my toes
          F            C             Dm
Lord I’ve got too many pages left to turn
   F              C                   F
To sit and wonder why that book won’t burn

C                        F                                        C
So here I stand, right before you; Waiting for my turn to tow the line
C                       F                                                 C
Don’t let me die in California; While I’m dragging all these rivers in my mind
           F                 C              Dm
Cause I’ve found a love that shines into my core
            F                C               Dm
And I don’t feel the need to prove myself no more
           F             C             Dm
And when I look into the mirror, now I see
  F           C                 F
A man I never knew that I could be
