Am          F          C              G
Try your worst, ´cause i´ve heard it all
          Am         F              C              G
and just stuck on a brave face and tried to walk tall
              Am               F                   C            G
and you can tell me that i´ve changed when you can look me in the eye
         Am           F            C    G
i´ve got tricks up my sleeveas I wave goodbye
 
PRECHORUS
F                            G
I like to think that I am stronger now than I was before
F                           G            
but now I´m having trouble showing you the door
 
CHORUS
Am  F  C  G
And ohhhh
Am       F  C   G
i´m on my road
            Am              F           C             G
i´ve got my map in hand but I just don´t know where I stand
            Am      F                C       G       
and now I´m here picking my pieces off the ground
 
Am              F                    C                     G
we need to get the negativity slack and let the positivity back
  Am      F                 F     G
I need a smile that isn´t fake
 Am        F                C           G
but i´ma need your help for goodness´ sake,
 Am     F   C    G
your help
 
Am            F
I´m sick of being a drifter,
           C                       G
being a floater, go-away-and-get-the-boat-er 
 Am                F        C           G
no one wants you here, why can´t you see
 Am                   F                    C                G
I was living life through someone else´s eyes but now I´m finally back to me
 
Am F C G

BRIDGE  
     Am        F    G
the ground you stand on
    Am            F              G
the ground that looks you in the eye
    Am          F    G
the ground you stand on
     Am           F             G
the ground that you will just walk by
 
(chorus)
