C

(Verse 1)
C
Got a big tattoo in Colorado Springs
        G
Jumped straight in the river just to feel the sting
      F                                          C
Of a permanent decision on my fleeting physical body

Took my time getting up to the west coast
      G
Read theory in the woods, drove solo
    F                                            C
My Corolla hates me a whole bunch for all those back roads, potholes

[Chorus]
C                             G
Being alone is freedom to me now
 F                                     C
Picking up stones to pray to, I think me and God have the same roots
C                    G                 Fmaj7             C G C
How can you call if home if you can't take it with you?

[Verse 2]
C
I surrendered my sword to a midnight sky
G                                                     C
The quiet composed itself and asked me why I've been fighting
                                                     G
Then the еarth cracked once and gave mе a bolt of lightning
                    C              G
She says, "You are everything you want to be
        C                      G
You are powerless and powerful by the grace of me
        C        G
Come home, come home"

[Chorus]
C                             G
Being alone is freedom to me now
F                                          C
I sit with myself in darkness, and when I can't find where the light is
G                                C
I look for a beautiful thing and recognize a piece of it in me

[Bridge]
C
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
G
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
F
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
C
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
G
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
F
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
