Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

listen to the song for the rhythm, for example the C is only for one strum,

but the F for 2 or 3.

Try your worst, 'cause i've heard it all

and just stuck on a brave face and tried to walk tall

and you can tell me that i've changed when you can look me in the eye

i've got tricks up my sleeveas I wave goodbye

Prechorus

I like to think that I am stronger now than I was before

but now I'm having trouble showing you the door

Chorus

And ohhhh

i'm on my road

i've got my map in hand but I just don't know where I stand

and now I'm here picking my pieces off the ground

we need to get the negativity slack and let the positivity back

I need a smile that isn't fake

but i'ma need your help for goodness' sake,

your help

I'm sick of being a drifter,

being a floater, go-away-and-get-the-boat-er

no one wants you here, why can't you see

I was living life through someone else's eyes but now I'm finally back to me

(prechorus)

(chorus)

Bridge

the ground you stand on

the ground that looks you in the eye

the ground you stand on

the ground that you will just walk by

(chorus)
