Bm All my life, G A I've been fighting a war Bm G A I can't talk to you or your friends Bm It's not only you, G A Bm My heart jumps around when I'm alluded to G A This will not do 'Cause I was raised up To be admired, to be noticed But when you're withdrawn, it's the closest thing To assault when all eyes are on you This will not do I'm faking glory Lick my lips, toss my hair And turn the smile on And the story's brand new But I can take it from here I'll find my own bravado Chorus: D It's a switch flipped It's a pill tipped back Em It's a moon eclipsed, oh Bm And I can tell you that when A the lights come on I'll be ready for this D It's in your bloodstream Em Bm A collision of atoms that happens before your eyes Bm It's a marathon run or A a mountain you scaled without thinking of size D I was frightened of every little thing Em Bm that I thought was out to get me down A To trip me up, and laugh at me, D But I learned not to want the quiet of the room Em Bm with no one around to find me out I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go, oh You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA D Em G Bm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
