Chords

This is how I play it. (The chords do not always make sense but it sounds right if you have the right effects.) There is no intro for this song. It begins with lyrics.

C                 G
Every day I get a little closer to, 

    Dm                   C
The things that I wanna, say with my life, 

      G          Dm
In no particular order

F                G
I'd like to make some sort of mark, 

Dm                C
So that the world knows I was here... 

         G
And I've been thinkin' about, 

Dm                 F
How I could scream it out loud, 

Dm         G
Or paint a picture somehow, 

Dm               G
A thousand miles long

Dm            D            F
And I've been tryin' 'till now, 

C               G
These walls are freakin' me out, 

Dm
Just need to let it all out, 

Am
And reach out, 

Dm                 G
Because sometimes, you can forget who you are

Dm                 G
I'm tired of trying to make it, 

Dm            F
I've spent so many nights, 

C                    G
Tryin' to get it all right, oh-oh-oh

Dm           G
I'm sick and tired of waiting, 

C                    F
For someone to see, and start believing in me,

Oh-oh-oh

C                      G
But I know I'm not out here on my own... 

Dm                 E
Every year I get a little farther from, 

F                    G
Old misconceptions, that take the place, 

Dm
Of mistakes and lessons, 

C              G
There's things I've learned from, 

F
Things I've been burned from, 

Dm                    F              C
It's part of who I am And I've been thinkin' about, 

G                  Dm
How I could scream it out loud, 

Dm         G
Or paint a picture somehow, 

Dm               G
A thousand miles long

Dm            D            F
And I've been tryin' 'till now, 

C                G
These walls are freakin' me out, 

Dm
Just need to let it all out, 

Am 
And reach out, 

Dm                 G
Because sometimes, you can forget who you are

Dm                 G
I'm tired of trying to make it, 

Dm            F
I've spent so many nights, 

C                    G
Tryin' to get it all right, oh-oh-oh

Dm           G
I'm sick and tired of waiting, 

C                    F
For someone to see, and start believing in me,

Oh-oh-oh

Dm                      C
But I know I'm not out here on my own... 

G                  C
There's been a lot of people, 

Dm        F
Think I'm goin' no where, 

G                  F                     G
Times that by ten, for every time I felt like turnin' around, 

Dm             F
But every time you said push on

Dm            G
And keep your head up, 

Em                                   F
Kept me on track from letting myself get fed up

Then end on a Cm
