[F#] 1, 2, 3, 4
A mood [D] of fear within me that I was sitting there demanding [F#] a God given right and my soul
became satisfied [D] that I was right in what I
[F#]
was that I could no longer be [D] satisfied
I could no longer forgive a person that I had to be malice, [F#]
had to keep loving a person
[D] who denies it, who's bad at it
[Gm] [Dm] [G]
[C]
[Gm] [Dm] [G]
[C]
[Gm] How does [Dm] it feel [G]
[C] when it's quiet and calm [Gm] and will I [G] be [C] denied?
[Gm] [F] How will it be [C] when it's time to move on?
[Gm] [Dm] Mother says [Gm] kneel and [C] pray
[Gm] When [Dm] it gets [G] hard [C] I will roll those sleeves
[Gm] Life can [Dm] be so [C] unkind
I
[Gm] [Dm] will be bound [C]
on the edge of the world
[Gm] Where [Dm] there'll be no one [C] around
Solid [Gm] ground,
[C] solid [Gm] ground, [Dm] [G]
[C] solid [Gm] ground,
[C] solid [Gm] ground
How
[C]
[Gm] [Dm] does it feel [C] to be on your own?

[Gm] I [Dm] know [G] I'm here [C] and I don't belong [Am]
[Gm] I'm [A#] on my knees [C] today
[Am] When [C]
[Gm] [F] it gets dark [C] I will know no fear [Gm]
Life can [Dm] be so [C] unkind
[Gm] [Dm] Hanging [C] around on the edge of the world
[Gm] Finally [Dm] no one [C] around
Oh, would [Cm] you help me?
I [G#] don't understand
Is [F] it all right for my wounded, [C] starlit [G] ground?
