C C/B E/G# Let me out, don't tell me everything Am F Started out like any other day Dm Must have gave the wrong impression F Am Don't you understand where I belong? G I'm not the one. Stand again, they say nothing comes for free And that's the truth, I've been living in a fantasy Slip and slide a head trip heaven Self-denial's such a wonderful and powerful thing But I'm not the one. Chorus: C Dm C/E F The morning dove sings, with two broken wings Dm C/E F G Carry me home, I'm not afraid Am G/B F C/E The stars in my eyes were shimmering lights G Am F G C Carry me home, don't let me fade away. Stop the press the kid's light is growing dim He took a month long slide, then the world came caving in When you self-destruct you wind up looking for a glimmer of hope But the writing's on the wall I'm not the one. Chorus F G Just how thick is your skin? (away) Am G/B Just how sharp are your teeth? F G Am G/B Oh, you've got a lot to learn C Dm C/E F Is there somewhere else that I can win? Dm C/E F G Is there something else to start over again? Am G/B F C/E From the summit's edge to the cutting room floor G C/E G I will be afraid no more. Chorus: The morning dove sings, with two broken wings Carry me home, I’m not afraid The stars in my eyes were shimmering lights Carry me home, don’t let me fade Carry me home Carry me You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  Dm  E  F  G  G#  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
