[Bbm]
[Bb] Standing on the outside, looking [Abm] in.
You know it's been a long time, don't [Bbm] know where to begin.
So much I want to say, so much I want to do.
[C] Friends are telling me, [Eb] it's time that you [F] broke through.
I've been through the hard times of searching [Bb] [Ab] soul.
You know it's been a hard climb from rock and roll.
Now I feel a need in me, so hard to explain.
