G
I was six years old
G7
When my parents went away
C D
I was stuck inside a broken life
I couldn't wish away
G
She was beautiful
G7 C
She had everything and more
D C
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door
C D
Somebody listen please
C D
It used to be so hard being me
D G
Living in the shadow
G7
Of someone else's dream
C D
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
G
Living in a nightmare
G7
A never-ending sleep
C
But now that I am wide awake
D
My chains are finally free
G
Don't feel sorry for me
G
All the days collided
G7
One less perfect than the next
C D G
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best
G7 C
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
D C
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity
C D
So if you're listening
C D
There's so much more to me you haven't seen
G
Living in the shadow
G7
Of someone else's dream
C D
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
G
Living in a nightmare
G7
A never-ending sleep
C
But now that I am wide awake
D
Then I can finally be me
G
Don't feel sorry-
C
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
G
Everything's cool now
C
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
G
Everything's cool now
D
Oh, my life is good
C
I've got more than anyone should
D
Oh, my life is good
C
And the past in the past
G
I was living in the shadow
G7
Of someone else's dream
C D
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
G
I'm living in a new day
G7
I'm living it for me
C
And now that I am wide awake
D
Then I can finally be
G
Don't feel sorry for me
G7 C
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me
G G7
Living in, living in, living in the shadow
C D
Living in, living in, living in a new day
