The Difference

           Gm
Am I gonna die, am I gonna live,
           Bb
am I gonna sit on the edge of fear.
           F
Am i gonna fall, am I gonna fight,
              Gm
or am I gonna watch from the 
outside.
            Gm
Sometimes I wake from the deepest 
sleep,
         Bb
oh and I feel tomorrow in me,
                   F
like I don't wanna let the hand of 
yesterday
Dm
hold me back.

[Verse 2]
                 Gm
But everything I see, everything I 
watch,
               Bb
makes me wanna hold my ear till it 
stops,
               F
makes me wanna run, makes me wanna 
hide,
               Gm
makes me wanna set this house 
alight.
         Gm
Oh but I remember my mother's voice,
                Bb
telling me that every day's a 
choice,
                  F
for where there's good, there's
Dm
bad.


[Chorus 1]
       Gm               F
But my child you always can,
        Bb               
be the difference, be the 
  Dm                 Gm
difference, be the difference.
             F                    
I know the world's gone made it's 
Bb
true,
                    Dm
she said, be the difference,
                    Gm
she cried, be the difference,
               F                Bb
cause I see a fighter logged in you.

[Verse 3]
              Gm
So am I gonna open everything up,
               Bb
am i gonna let fury fill my cup,
                 F
am I gonna be an anthem singing in 
the dark,
            Gm
gonna light up like a burning heart.
           Gm
Am I gonna stand still as a rock,
                 F
while everything shakes and time 
rolls on,
             F          Dm
am I gonna remember the truth.


[Verse 4]
                 Gm
Cause I wanna be nasty, wanna be 
brave,
            Bb
not let his fear make me afraid,
                 F
I don't wanna pretend I'm too
Gm
small to jump the wall.
                 Gm
I'm just tryna remember her voice,
                Bb
telling me that every day's a 
choice,
                  Bm
for where there's good, there's
Dm
bad.

       Gm               F

                    Gm

               F               Bb
Cause I see a fighter logged in you.
