[Intro] F#m E D (x2) [Verse 1]
  F#m           E                     D
I am my dear so painfully clear of it all

     F#m
What you always fear

          E              D
Leave you barren land of toil

  F#M                  E
I gave myself away, so easily you would say

        D
I was a kid

        F#m                            E
But I’ll always be a child through the harshness and the wildness

       D
I will always be face to the wind

          E              D
Leave you barren land of toil

      F#m
Oh, I made my own damn choices

       E
Took a bite in all its poison

    D
And ask for ball and chain

      F#m
Now I came to be a man

        E
Not without my father’s hand

       D
But without your fears and their pain
