Cm D# Tune in to find my peace and solitude G# These empty rooms spin A# And I embrace the flaws of being human Cm D# The black and white and sometimes the greys that stay for days G# The in-between times, the meantimes A# That make the song of life sing Fm Cm Play, rest, repeat A# Fm Read exactly what is written on the sheet Cm Don't deviate they say A# Fm Cm But I will play what's best for me A# Fm I'll press the keys and pull the strings Create a symphony that's mine Chorus: D# Gm Cm G# And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song D# Gm Cm And the verses I write will speak for me Fm Good girls don't make history G# So I may never be what you assume Cm A# Don't want your hooks or auto-tune G# Cm A# If I'm off-key then that's alright with me G# Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone My song will carry on Let go I let my voice be heard, then listen for the echo My own reverb is playing Cause I'm a movement There's dissonance, sometimes I make mistakes Oh I'm human after all, I'm not your expectations But play, rest, repeat, that's what they ask of me Just stick to this melody and stay between the lines But I'll play what's best for me I'll ring the bells and crash the cymbals My harmonious design Chorus A# In my time here Cm Fm I wanna be revered and remembered G# Oh let them say I came, I conquered A# So I won't fear Cm Fm And I can't blend in G# A# You can't replace and you cannot erase me Cm A# G# Cause my song will play on beyond time Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  Cm  D#  Fm  Gm  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
