G
These city limit signs

Are keeping me inside
      Em
Like prison walls
      C         G
That won't fall down


[Verse 2]
G
I said that I would leave

A year ago this week
       Em
But my heartstrings
              C            G
They're still tied to this ground


[Pre-chorus]
C                           G
But I'm still the same as I was
Em                     G
But I wish that I was gone


[Verse 3]
G
I lost another friend to the war again
  Em            C      G
A prison with a pretty face
G
He said it would be fine, but I said just give it time
              Em                 C               G
And now he's sleeping with those choices that he made


[Pre-chorus]
C                          G
But I'm still the same as I was
Em                    G
But I wish that I was gone
G
I was gone


[Chorus]
Em        G       Em                   C
I thought I would be somewhere else by now
          G       Em                 C
I thought I would be someone else by now
          G       Em                   A
I thought I would be somewhere else by now
        C
But I'm not


[Verse 4]
G
I'm doing what I love

While you're doing what you're told
  Em                   C                 G
I know its safe, but I bet that's getting old


[Verse 5]
G
So take your blinders off, and see what you got
    Em            C         G
And reach out and just take hold
Em            C         G
Reach out and just take hold
Em            C         G
Reach out and just take hold
