[Gm] I've been around long enough [Eb] to know I've heard the story [Cm] told
I've seen this life on cold or [Eb] I've
[Gm] heard the sound of voice I don't [Eb] recall
A stranger I don't [Cm] know I'm back against the [Eb] wall
[Gm] I'm done running, I'm caught, I'm now an [Eb] escape Take me away, this place is more than the [Cm] same
Just in [Eb] a lifetime
[Gm] I've been running in circles, I've been chasing the [Eb] sun
I guess I'm looking for something, but I just don't [Cm] know what
Everything has a purpose, everyone has [Eb] their doubts
Why's it feel so uncertain, why you [Gm] running around?
It ain't easy, I'm leaving my [Eb] tree
A perfect place to [Cm] be
[Eb] I'm [Gm]
caught, I'm now an [Eb] escape Take me away, this place is more than [Cm] the same
Just in [Eb] a lifetime

[Gm] Something's happening, this feeling's [Eb] saddening
I refuse to give in
[Bb] Hold on, hold [F] on
[Gm] There's a violin here, when the truth [Eb] comes clear
You can find it here
[Bb] I'm done
[F] [C]
[D] [Gm] running, I'm caught, I'm now an [Eb] escape Take me away, this place is more than [Bb] the same
Just in [F] a lifetime
I'm [Gm] done running, I'm caught, I'm now an [Eb] escape Take me away, this place is more than the same
I'm walking [Bb] steady, it's never the same This is once in a [F] lifetime
