I
[G] [D]
started out in search of [G] [D] ordinary things.
How much of a tree [G] bends [D] in the wind?
I started telling the story [G] without [D] knowing the end.
[G] [D]
[C#] I used to be darker, [D] [G] then I got lighter, then [D] I got dark again.
And something too big to be seen [A] was passing over and [G] over me.
[D]
[G] Well it seemed like a routine, [D] case at first.
[G] With the death of the shadow came [D] a lightness of grace.
[G] With the darkest of nights, [D] truth still dazzled.
[G] And I loved myself [D] until I'm frazzled.

[D] I ended up in search of [G]

Like how can a wave possibly be?
I started running, [G] and the [D] concrete turned to sand.
