Cm I was hoping for an indication A# I was seeking higher elevation D# Aye aye aye, aye aye aye Cm I've been shaken, waking in the night light A# I've been breaking, hiding from the spotlight D# Aye aye aye, aye aye aye G# The more I stray, the less I fear D# And the more I reach, the more I fade away G# The darkness right in front of me A# Oh, it's calling out, and I won't walk away Chorus: D# I would always open up the door A# Always looking up at higher floors Cm G# Wanna see it all give me more (rise, rise up) D# I was always up for making changes A# Walking down the street meeting strangers Cm Flipping through my life turning pages G# (rise, rise up) Like a prayer that only needs a reason Like a hunter waiting for the season Aye aye aye, aye aye aye I was there, but I was always leaving I've been livin', but I was never breathing Aye aye aye, aye aye aye The more I stray, the less I fear And the more I reach, the more I fade away The darkness right in front of me Oh, it's calling out, and I won't walk away Chorus D# A# G# I'm bursting like the Fourth of July D# A# G# So color me and blow me away D# A# G# I'm broken in the prime of my life D# A# G# So embrace it and leave me to stray Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  Cm  D#  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
